Wind River provides key technologies for the first flight of the new unmanned shipborne stealth fighter
Northrop Grumman uses wind river VxWorks to develop ucas-d unmanned air combat demonstration system for the first time. Wind River, the global leader in embedded and mobile application software, announced that the new unmanned fighter x-47b developed and built by Northrop Grumman for the U.S. Navy, The 29 minute maiden flight test was successfully completed at Edwards Air Force Base in California at 2:09 p.m. Pacific Standard Time (PST) on February 4, 2011. The ucas-d (Navy s unmanned combat air system carrier demonstration) used by this new fighter is constructed with the VxWorks real-time operating system of Wind River as its key technology, and the common core system (CCS) is provided by GE aviation to construct the overall computing environment of ucas-d backbone system, including computer, network and man-machine electronic interface
x-47b unmanned combat aircraft is a tailless aircraft, which can be carried on the aircraft carrier and operate safely. It can take off from the aircraft carrier and return to the aircraft carrier after completing the task of attacking enemy targets. In addition, the x-47b can also refuel in flight
northrop Grumman developers use VxWorks to quickly build, deploy and maintain the key application software of x-47b unmanned combat aircraft, because VxWorks provides developers with a set of proven, reliable and efficient solutions, which can fully meet the needs of high security application control systems
Chip Downing, director of the aerospace and defense business department of Wind River, said that ucas-d plan is a necessary and critical step in the scientific and technological development of the new generation of unmanned carrier based air combat system of the U.S. military in the future. Wind River is honored to be selected and have the opportunity to participate in this ambitious major military plan. Cooperation with Northrop Grumman 4. Filters: for filters without infarct instigators, we have also cooperated with local vocational colleges to prove the value of Wind River solutions, and Wind River also continues to be committed to becoming an innovative driver of key applications of driverless control systems; With the help of the commercial (COTS) products of wind river that have been verified by many parties, equipment manufacturers can no longer restart the closed production capacity and quickly launch high complexity systems that must be tested and verified by strict military regulations or commercial regulations before they can be listedjanis pamiljans, vice president of Northrop Grumman aerospace systems and head of ucas-d program, said: the official release of the x-47b unmanned stealth fighter is a very important milestone for the U.S. Navy, our company and Wind River; Thanks to the mature and advanced technology of Wind River, the debut of x-47b was so successful
