Rugged systems built on the compact size and modularity of the 3U VPX form factor address growing aerospace and defense program requirements for Line Replaceable Units (LRU) that conform to decreasing size, weight, power, and cost (SWaP-C) allocations. But getting 3U VPX-based LRUs from development to deployment can be time-consuming, and costly. Curtiss-Wright simplifies the process with complete, innovative, COTS-based 3U VPX solutions that accelerate system development for land, air, and sea platforms.
Our complete, low-cost, 3U VPX offerings are engineered to integrate easily into existing development programs under short lead times. We offer more than boards in a box – we deliver fully developed systems complete with software tools and analysis documentation to help you get to deployment quicker.
- Rugged Multi-Platform Mission Computer (MPMC) systems supported by software tools and analysis and SDRL documents, such as Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) report, thermal report, Design Verification Test (DVT) report, and more
- System Quick Start Kits of proven, pre-configured 3U modules pre-installed in a lab/demonstration chassis, with a 4-8 week lead time
- System Built-In Test (BIT) Software pre-tested and verified for complex, high-performance requirements
- Test Infrastructure that shortens development cycles increases test coverage and verifies hardware performance under high levels of simultaneous usage
