ASHBURN, Va. – March 5, 2018 -- Curtiss-Wright’s Defense Solutions division is pleased to announce a new licensing agreement with Réaltra, a division of Realtime Technologies Ltd.

Curtiss-Wright will continue to have the first option on any identified opportunities and will continue to deliver space technology solutions to Curtiss-Wright customers. Danny Gleeson, a principal in Réaltra, will also continue to serve in his space market consultancy role for Curtiss-Wright.
