Electronic Warfare and Weapons Control

Electronic Warfare and Weapons ControlAdvanced weapons systems require fast, adaptable software frameworks based on industry standards. Electronic warfare systems must consistently deliver unerring high performance based on secure and reliable platforms. In the rapidly evolving world of national defense, the latest technology must be deployed to remain vigilant in defending against a growing array of enemy weapon systems.

What's Our Solution?

Wind River's VxWorks real-time operating system solves the complex issues for weapons control and electronic warfare with its high-performance scalability and reliability. For human-machine interface (HMI) and connectivity to the system-of-systems architectures, Wind River Linux delivers complete, integrated solutions based on global standards, including CGL 4.0, POSIX, IPv6, Common Criteria, SCA, LSB, DISR, Eclipse, and FIPS.

Our industry-leading products tame the complexities of developing next-generation weapons control and electronic warfare platforms and control costs by bringing it all together in an integrated COTS solution.

Complete Run-Time Platforms
Wind River Linux, Wind River Hypervisor, and Wind River VxWorks platforms are standards-based to maximize agility; integrated for high performance; scalable to small footprint requirements; and interoperable with multiple IPv6 protocols. We prove our commitment to open standards every day—from commercial-grade Linux solutions to support for CGL 4.0, POSIX, SCA, IPv6, and open Eclipse software development frameworks.

Customization Services
Wind River Professional Services will help you reduce the total costs of development, production, certification, support, and enhancement—while meeting your market windows more reliably. We'll help you develop and integrate customer-specific features, manage programs and projects, test your baselines using proven products and practices, contribute commercial or open source software component integration and test expertise, deliver ongoing support across the software life cycle, provide maintenance and upgrade management of upstream sources, and more.

Comprehensive Simulation, Debug, and Test Tools
Wind River Simics virtual platform allows you to simulate the entire target, even if it contains multiple boards with multiple hardware architectures running multiple real-time operating systems (RTOS). Simics virtual platforms are simulations of the entire target system and not just an individual processor, system-on-chip (SoC), or board. This gives all developers, testers, and integrators access to the entire target system so they can debug/test it as a whole instead of individual pieces of the system.

Wind River offers advanced JTAG tools for rapid hardware and software debugging. Wind River Framework for Automated Software Testing (FAST) automates the labor-intensive process of testing the kernel, BSP, middleware, and application integration. The framework can be tailored to specific performance and reliability requirements, significantly reducing development time. It includes an authoring tool so you can create your own automated tests—or we can build tests for you.

Wind River Test Management is a test execution optimization system for embedded devices. It enables unprecedented run-time visibility into devices while under test. The system provides the operational feedback that test teams and their management need to achieve the highest possible quality in the least amount of time.

Global Support
Wind River global support delivers products and services that can help you overcome technical obstacles and accelerate the deployment of your electronic warfare or weapons control system.

Wind River Online Support provides easy 24/7 access to product manuals, downloadable software, and other resources.

Wind River support has achieved Service Capability and Performance (SCP) certification, recognized as the gold standard for delivering world-class customer support.

Superior Ecosystem
Wind River has joined forces with leading hardware and software providers for such complementary technologies as COTS boards, graphics capabilities, Ada support, Java virtual machines, communications protocols, system modeling tools, control design tools, test tools, certification services, and platform simulation applications.

In conjunction with Wind River's offerings, our tools partners enable the entire aerospace and defense design flow to be easily integrated into an open development environment.

We have also invested in pre-integration or validation with commercial software components to reduce the upfront development time and can optimize the software with partner products and your target hardware.
