Experience complete data access at low-latency, direct-attached speeds over secure network connections. Introducing the Rugged Data Storage (RDS) system – the first affordable, scalable multi-petabyte network storage solution for deployment at the data source.

EXECUTIVE SUITE
Researchers are interested in combining laser and conventional weapons targeting in two levels: integrated systems; and targeting sensors and cameras.
PROCUREMENT OPPORTUNITIES
Researchers are investigating hybrid space architectures of integrated systems of commercial, allied, and U.S. government satellite systems.
MANIAC seeks to develop a tactical system, models, and technical design for a small and efficient multifunction RF/MMW system.
JETSON, which is part of the STAR-FISH initiative, seeks to develop enabling technologies for space-based radioisotope power systems.
AMASS seeks to develop measures to counteract enemy counter-anti-access and -area-denial technologies by using a common command-and-control language.
DESIGN-IN CASE STUDIES
The E-6B Mercury, a modified Boeing 707, is a backup to the U.S. Strategic Command Global Operations Center should the ground-based site go down.
The CM-523/U spectrum analyzer will measure input signals between 9 kHz and 26.5 GHz for Army avionics, missiles, ordnance, and signals equipment.
PARCS is a large radar that provides ballistic missile warning and attack assessment, as well as space surveillance data to U.S. combatant commanders.
The Next Generation Hub uses USB 2.0 for data communication among devices, and distributes power from two power input ports to provide network power.
EXECUTIVE BUSINESS
General Dynamics will continue with technology insertion for the Prophet-Enhanced system to keep the systems up to date against an evolving threat.
QuICC seeks to improve computing performance by two orders of magnitude using quantum computing techniques called quantum-inspired solver systems.
The KC-46 aircraft, based on the Boeing 767-200 widebody passenger jet, can refuel all U.S., allied, and coalition military aircraft.
UH-60M includes the improved GE-701D engine and provides greater cruising speed, rate of climb, and internal load than the UH-60A and UH-60L versions.
ACQUISITION & LOGISTICS
Howard will lead a consortium of historically black colleges with engineering and technology research for military tactical autonomy applications.
The ACV wheeled armored vehicle can move as many as 13 Marine infantry warfighters from ships offshore to fight their way onto invasion beaches.
Apogee will provide program management, configuration management, technical standardization, mission engineering analysis, and architecture support.
Mercury will provide 35 data transfer units, 15 secret encryption module cables, 157 high-definition video recorders, and 72 data transfer devices.
