Delivering more predictable processing through a balance of performance, memory, and power is essential to harness the digital signal processing capabilities for ISR applications.

Tasked with building a new Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV), a shipbuilder faced challenging requirements. The developer planned to connect all the computer systems via a one gigabit Ethernet (1 GbE) network.

In search of a small form factor network attached storage (NAS) solution for a new UUV, an engineer at a defense contractor reached out to Curtiss-Wright. The UUV required a high storage capacity solution to store critical mission data on long-range missions.

As unmanned vehicles become more powerful and complex, their electronics payloads must adapt to match new mission objectives. This often forces aerospace and defense system integrators to push for reductions in size, weight, power, and cost (SWaP-C).

A customer sought a secure data storage solution that could maintain reliability under extreme temperatures and vibration, and be available off the shelf.

A global helicopter manufacturer, faced with a need to upgrade an existing EW suite to increase functionality, sought high-performance technology with a reputable pedigree that they could offer to their growing customer base.

A large aerospace systems integrator that manufactures wide-area persistent surveillance systems was challenged with finding a network-attached storage solution to meet their demanding requirements. Learn about the HSR40 NAS solution.

Tactical Air Support, Inc. needed a cockpit accessible rugged data recorder and a pre-integrated mission computer to upgrade its fleet of F-5AT Tiger II Military supersonic tactical fighters. Read about the solution Curtiss-Wright developed here.

A customer wished to move to the latest and greatest technology without having to change pinouts or cables on the aircraft.

A leading mission systems integrator sought a data recording and storage device that could capture up to 1 TB of data in a removable drive, easily integrated into their existing mission system, adding minimal weight.

This white paper explores how some of the use-case considerations and technological advances are driving system integrators to pursue a distributed over a consolidated system architecture and visa-versa.
