The VPX3-E320 3U VPX ruggedized, user-programmable software-defined radio card is ideal for low-to-medium bandwidth RF applications

Technical standards like SOSA and CMOSS alleviate interoperability, sustainability, and SWaP challenges by efficiently reusing proven technology.

This paper aims to put MOSA (Modular Open Systems Approach) into perspective and enable you, whether a defense contractor, a decision-maker at the DoD, or a public policymaker, to put the increasingly relevant MOSA to use better.

This white paper was presented at the 2021 NDIA Ground Vehicle Systems Engineering and Technology Symposium, Vehicle Electronics Architectures Technical Session, August 10-12, 2021.

We examine the 2019 tri-services memo regarding MOSA and what open standards such as SOSA, FACE, and VICTORY mean for today’s military programs.
