Thrust Vector Actuation Systems

For over 30 years, Honeywell has

developed Thrust Vector Actuation (TVA)

systems for missiles, launch vehicles

and spacecraft. Our TVA systems have

a long history of flight proven success,

with reliable blow-down hydraulic TVA

and high performance electro-mechanical

actuation products designed to exceed

our customer’s mission assurance

objectives. Our products provide critical

support to many production and

advanced technology development

programs, with installations that include

Space Shuttle main engine, Shuttle

maneuvering engines, X-34, Ground-

Based Midcourse Defense (GMD)

booster, Taurus, Athena, Peacekeeper

and SR-19 Launch Vehicles. Delivering

precision control, reliable performance

and affordability ensures that Honeywell

Thrust Vector Actuation Systems provide

a superior value to our customers.

Each Honeywell Thrust Vector Actuation

system is delivered as a modular kit,

which simplifies installation by providing

all TVA system hardware. A typical

system kit includes the Electronic Control

Unit (ECU), actuators, and any tanks,

hoses, mounting brackets or wiring

harnesses that are necessary for TVA

system installation.
