Attritable drones can be lost in combat, but the mission data they carry cannot. Learn why encrypted data-at-rest storage is critical for protecting ISR, targeting, and mission intelligence if uncrewed systems are captured.

The Curtiss-Wright AMMS has a high-speed embedded computing suite for high -performance processing, and a modular, scalable open-systems architecture.

The advent of unmanned systems reflects a huge aspect of warfare – that of protecting the warfighter – through the development of platforms that can be operated by humans from a distance, keeping them out of harm’s way.

Military experts are developing new enabling technologies to help unmanned aircraft, ground vehicles, submarines, and surface vessels swarm and make decisions without human intervention.

Reliable, secure communications become much more critical in unmanned systems. If communications are lost, the unmanned system may need to throttle back.

Paul Davis looks at how netbooting provides a superior alternative solution for installing and updating software that delivers huge labor savings.

There is significant commonality between unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and UUV environments with standard rugged military commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) embedded solutions often applicable to both.

New technologies will enable the warfighter to see more emitters simultaneously and geolocate those threats in near-real-time without compromising the ability to continue scanning the electromagnetic spectrum for other targets.
