Business Wire
Demonstrates the company’s focus on developing
and fielding cutting-edge open systems architecture convergence
platform for mounted platforms in support of U.S Army network
modernization
Leonardo DRS, Inc. (NASDAQ: DRS) announced today its newest
combat computing product as its latest addition to the company’s
proven tactical computing portfolio of products used across U.S.
and allied militaries. This new offering is fully compliant with
the U.S. Army’s C4ISR/Electronic Warfare Modular Open Suite of
Standards (CMOSS).
This modular open systems architecture (MOSA) platform will
enable flexibility and advanced capabilities intended to converge
select Army warfighting capabilities – such as mission command,
movement and maneuver and fires. The company’s new platform is well
positioned to address the U.S. Army’s requirements under the CMOSS
Mounted Form factor (CMFF) Program.
This new DRS-designed CMFF system is an innovative,
next-generation combat vehicle computing hub that is a ruggedized,
lightweight, open architecture hardware system designed to deliver
state-of-the-art capability to future Army combat computer
networking needs. It enables users to insert plug-and-play
networked 3U-VPX capability cards including assured positioning
navigation and timing (APNT), mission command applications, and
multi-band software defined radios.
This next generation, open architecture capability will enable
the U.S. Army to field future technology capabilities continuously,
while avoiding the delays and costs due to proprietary IP and
“vendor lock.” Additionally, this advanced CMFF platform will
provide soldiers with improved situational awareness and networking
on the battlefield.
“We are excited to unveil this advanced system in support of an
important Army network modernization initiative,” said Bill Guyan,
senior vice president and general manager of the Leonardo DRS Land
Electronics business. “DRS has a proven 25-year track record of
providing mission critical tactical computers, and CMFF is the
latest demonstration of our full commitment to that partnership and
support of the Army modernization goals. We are focused on
continuing to deliver the quality products that allow soldiers to
execute their missions on the modern battlefield.”
DRS’s current mission critical computing platforms are used
throughout the U.S. Army and U.S. Marine Corps ground combat and
tactical wheeled vehicle fleets, enabling the execution of mission
command, logistics tracking and fire control on today’s
multi-domain battlefield.
The new DRS CMFF computing system is a natural product evolution
that fully aligns the Army’s Network modernization vision. It
represents the company’s commitment to open architecture standards
and employs our deep engineering understanding of combat vehicle
environmental requirements. This combination ensures the delivery
of a low-risk solution for the U.S. Army. Additionally, it is
designed as a dependable mission critical CMOSS capability that
warfighters can use in the conduct of large-scale combat operations
without hesitation.
DRS proudly supports Modular Open Systems Approach and is a
leading participant of the CMOSS efforts and architectures; it is
also a principal member of the SOSA consortium. This critical
involvement ensures DRS products are interoperable for warfighters
across all military branches.
Network computing is a key strategic focus for the company as it
continues to be the leading provider of advanced C5 technologies,
delivering increased data and communications needed for situational
awareness in multi-domain battlefield operations. The company is
investing in the future of C5 for the DoD through the development
of the next generation of MFOCS Systems, AI processing solutions
and advanced CMOSS/SOSA aligned mounted systems – all aimed at
enabling future network and platform processing to improve sensor
fusion, situational awareness and reduce the cognitive burden for
commanders and crews.
