Northrop Grumman Demonstrates Platform Agnostic In-Flight Connectivity for US Air Force
23 Mars 2023 - 2:30PM
Northrop Grumman Corporation (NYSE: NOC) successfully demonstrated
the technical capability to connect a full aircraft ecosystem. The
company showcased its Software Programmable Open Mission Systems
Compliant (SPOC) multifunction processor in a flight test for the
U.S. Air Force, highlighting the ability to integrate existing and
future platforms using advanced data links.
“With the maturity of our technology, we have the solutions
today that will provide unparalleled mission effectiveness,” said
Jenna Paukstis, vice president, communications solutions, Northrop
Grumman. “We are connecting platforms that will benefit the joint
force and provide them with real-time battlespace awareness across
air, space, land and sea.”
Advancing technology in solutions like SPOC provide the Air
Force with a low size, weight and power radio that is scalable,
upgradable and flexible to fit in any platform. The SPOC design
also provides an integration environment for next generation
communications that can reduce cost, risk and time to deploy.
Flown on Northrop Grumman’s flying test bed at Naval Air Station
Patuxent River in Maryland, SPOC connected with a ground station in
a live, over-the-air test using advanced waveforms. This flight
test is part of a contract with the Air Force to develop and
demonstrate a solution to help define the Air Force’s next
generation radio approach. Developing SPOC using Northrop Grumman’s
software development kit and open architecture will allow the Air
Force to introduce new capabilities at speed to meet evolving
threats.
