Given its complexity and the critical applications for which it is designed, embedded avionics software must undergo a rigorous approval and testing process before it can be approved as airworthy.

Explore new deployed approaches for detecting threats to GPS and providing position, navigation, and timing (PNT) information to the warfighter in GPS-denied environments.

To ensure that ground combat vehicles have the most reliable and accurate PNT data, the U.S. Army is advancing a Mounted Assured PNT System (MAPS) approach that enables warfighters to transition away from the use of less robust legacy GPS devices.

John McHale with Military Embedded Systems' April 2016 roundtable with industry experts looks at Safety Critical avionics trends.

Increasingly, FAA and EASA regulations are requiring that airborne electronics used in military applications meet the DO-254 safety certification standard.

David Jedynak discusses how COTS technology enables military navigators use GPS.
