Aonix PERC Ultra Virtual Machine Passes Muster on Modernized Guided Missile Cruiser USS Bunker Hill
Atego, the leading independent supplier of industrial-grade, collaborative development tools for engineering complex, mission- and safety-critical architectures, systems, software and hardware, has announced the successful deployment of its industry-leading Aonix PERC Virtual Machine technology in support of Lockheed Martin’s (NYSE: LMT) Java language components used in the Aegis Open Architecture System during recent combat tests.
San Diego, CA, April 09, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Combat System Ship Qualification Trials (CSSQT) tests the ship’s Java language- based Aegis Combat Systems for combat readiness.
Atego, the leading independent supplier of industrial-grade, collaborative development tools for engineering complex, mission- and safety-critical architectures, systems, software and hardware, has announced the successful deployment of its industry-leading Aonix PERC Virtual Machine technology in support of Lockheed Martin’s (NYSE: LMT) Java language components used in the Aegis Open Architecture System during recent combat tests. The guided missile cruiser USS Bunker Hill (CG 52), modernized with the Aegis Weapon System, completed an operational trial of its full combat system.
Already deployed in thousands of fielded systems in the military/aerospace, telecommunications, transportation and industrial control markets, Aonix PERC Ultra is used by Lockheed Martin in its Aegis Weapon System, providing deterministic, real-time performance and high productivity development. Aonix PERC Ultra additionally provides the instrumentation and VM management tools necessary to support the mission-critical real-time requirements of the Aegis Weapon System.
“We are extremely pleased to celebrate with Lockheed Martin the successful trials of Bunker Hill’s Aegis Weapon System,” commented James B. Gambrell, Executive Chairman at Atego. “As a supplier to mission- and safety-critical system developers, we understand that building large, complex and operationally intensive systems is incredibly demanding, and Atego is pleased to be part of this winning team.”
The Aegis Weapon System is the world’s premier naval defense system and the sea-based element of the U.S. Ballistic Missile Defense System. Its precision SPY-1 radar and integrated command and control system seamlessly guides the interceptor and uplinks target track information to the missile for terminal homing. Its ability to detect, track and engage targets ranging from sea-skimming cruise missiles to ballistic missiles in space is proven.
“The combat readiness trials assert rigorous stress on the systems they test,” said Jim Sheridan, Lockheed Martin’s director, Aegis U.S, Navy Programs. “We appreciate Atego’s technical team’s dependability, responsiveness and support during our development and testing cycle.”
The 92 Aegis-equipped ships currently in service around the globe have more than 1,000 years of at-sea operational experience and have launched more than 3,500 missiles in tests and real-world operations. In addition to the U.S., Aegis is the maritime weapon system of choice for Australia, Japan, Norway, South Korea and Spain.
