Fire Control and Vehicle Computer applications are more demanding than ever, performing tasks faster with extreme accuracy required as standard. As more and more equipment is installed on existing platforms, the available space for any new solution will be smaller and confined. This, in turn, requires the solution to provide the latest technology within a reduced size, weight and power (SWaP) optimized system.
To make this possible, Curtiss-Wright provided a cost-effective, fully integrated 3U OpenVPX COTS processor and Gigabit Ethernet switch subsystem specifically designed for fire control, turret control, weapons control and vehicle control.
The MPMC-9331 system satisfies the most demanding field applications and is a fully qualified and packaged system solution with a range of flexible and rugged processing systems. The MPMC-9331 incorporates rugged computing and networking component packages that have been rigorously tested both functionally and environmentally allowing integrators to focus on software and algorithm development while meeting I/O, performance and environmental program requirements.
Overall, Curtiss-Wright develops systems that can be quickly configured to meet the needs of any military or aerospace requirements, including harsh avionics and vehicular environments.
