Harris to Advance Next-Generation Avionics Technology with Boeing
September 28, 2016 | Business WireEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Harris Corporation and Boeing are developing next-generation avionics technology for current and future military aircraft to improve and protect aviators’ missions.
Harris and Boeing are collaborating to create advanced core mission processing architectures. The mission processor manages many of an aircraft’s critical capabilities, including communication, sensors, navigation and displays. Harris will produce the collaborative design for this common processing hardware that, when integrated with Boeing Secure Computing Solution hardware, Boeing Phantom Fusion mission software and a state-of-the-art multi-level communication network, will help set the standard in modern mission computing.
Harris will apply its expertise in custom designed high-speed interfaces, advanced security, commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) processors, and advanced military quality packaging to deliver high-performance, scalable mission processing hardware based on an open-systems architecture.
“Our core processor hardware adapts to the mission needs of any military aircraft in a cost-effective way,” said Ed Zoiss, president, Harris Electronic Systems. “We will use our expertise in ruggedized, high-performance COTS hardware to provide the processing power and cross-platform applicability needed for mission success.”
