An historical document of the Naval Research Laboratory reported that "very large numbers of these equipments were obtained and utilized before and during World War II, and they were used for a considerable time thereafter.

"[6][8] Among the company's most notable wartime programs was the development – jointly with the U.S. Army Signal Corps and U.S. Navy – of the SCR-274-N, an exceptionally useful HF voice-communication radio for aircraft, ranging up to frequencies of 20 megacycles – "the only powerful command set... available to American aviators at the beginning of the war" – particularly useful in the Pacific Theater, and valued at over US$2,400 at the time.

ARC had delivered 2,700 of an ordered 2800 by December 1941, but the sudden wartime demand for tens of thousands of them forced the government to turn to a major manufacturer – Westinghouse Corporation – for the rest.

[9] The military avionics market evaporated after World War II, and ARC found itself outmaneuvered in commercial airline radios by Bendix Corp. and Collins.

During the proceedings, the following findings emerged as public record in the published decision of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit: (* Note that the original (1972) title of the case named ARC as "Aircraft Radio Corporation – implying a legally distinct entity, while the appeals court decision (1975), under that original case name, repeatedly refers to ARC in the body of the ruling as "Aircraft Radio Company," implying an identity less certainly distinct from its parent company, Cessna—a fact that changed during the litigation, apparently sometime after a September, 1973 letter from parent Cessna, of which the Court notes:[2] The ARC identity issue, though—and the timing of ARC's names—is further confused by this 1978 statement in a judge's memorandum in a lawsuit over Cessna's marketing of its avionics: Other sources, including a Cessna job ad in 1981, also indicate that Cessna, at one time, referred to ARC as "Aircraft Radio and Control - Cessna's avionics division.

Engineering Departments were led in 1980 by Kermit Beseke - Radios, Bob Fuller - Navigation Products, Alan Metzger - Autopilots, and Ed Burt - Elecrtromechanical Displays.

By 1982, the 110-acre Boonton plant was employing 900, with an estimated US$20 million in sales of aircraft and mobile communications systems, and navigation and guidance equipment.

"[18] Apparent press releases published in Aerospace and Defense Technology and in Avionics magazine describes it as "a wholly-owned business unit" owned by AirSpeed Engineering (ASE).

However, Aviation Maintenance Magazine lists the company as being based at a street address in Miami Springs, Florida,[21] and the Aircraft Electronics Association also lists it (as a member "since 2001") in Miami Springs, at the same phone number, but as "Aircraft Radio & Avionics LLC," at a post office box.

with capabilities for test, repair, overhaul and calibration of navigation, communications and avionics instruments, as well as "hydraulic, mechanical, electro-mechanical" accessories and components for "commercial... military, corporate and general aviation, [both] fixed and rotary wing aircraft.

"[18] Its press releases and reports, published in major industry magazines and news sites, indicate the company is active in fitting electronics to Boeing 737 jetliners.
