ISSC manages engineering, certification, manufacturing, and aftermarket support entirely in-house.
Innovative Solutions and Support is broadening its role in the aviation industry by evolving from a specialist in avionics into a provider of end-to-end cockpit solutions.
This transformation has been accelerated by the acquisitions of Honeywell's autopilot product portfolio and the Moog S-TEC Model 3100 autopilot business. These additions significantly strengthen ISSC's technology offering, allowing the company to integrate certified autopilot systems with its existing portfolio of cockpit displays, flight management systems, and autothrottles.
The expanded portfolio also positions ISSC to capitalize on the growing demand for aircraft modernization. Many commercial airlines, cargo carriers, business aircraft operators, and defense customers are extending the service life of existing fleets through avionics upgrades instead of purchasing new aircraft, driven by elevated replacement costs and ongoing supply-chain challenges. With a broader suite of products, including flight displays, autopilots, engine monitoring systems, electrical power solutions, and flight management technologies, ISSC is better equipped to participate in larger retrofit programs while offering customers a streamlined upgrade process.
ISSC manages the entire product lifecycle internally, from engineering and manufacturing to testing, certification, and aftermarket support. This approach enables tighter quality control, greater production flexibility, and improved supply-chain management.
Management believes that combining strategic acquisitions with continued in-house innovation will expand ISSC's addressable market across commercial, business, military, and special mission aircraft. As fleet modernization remains a priority throughout the aviation industry, the company's enhanced product portfolio could support larger contract wins, deeper customer relationships, and a growing stream of aftermarket revenues.
