Overview

The increase in mission functions, as well as the growth of sophisticated technology for the wide variety of avionic and defense applications, has lead to immense complex requirements for the functional performance of mission computers. Not only are there countless operational features, there are also tactical requisite requirements for rapid mission reconfiguration. With these elaborate requirements, today’s mission computers must be highly versatile, scalable, and very importantly, easy-to-use. There is also an enormous pressure to reduce the weight, size and power consumption, while at the same time increase the speed, functional capability, and storage.


CES’s suite of mission computers utilizes COTS-based platforms, which are implemented in a modular architecture, and therefore we ensure that our customer’s investment is protected for interfacing capabilities and future upgrades. Our extensive implementation experience gives us an advantage as a preferred solution provider of custom integrated mission computers, which meet the most rigorous customer specifications, project time-lines, as well as an exhaustive list of certification levels.


Product Description
Fact Sheet
Command and Control Computing Systems CES Command and Control Computing Systems are avionic computer platforms based on standard CES hardware and software elements with user-defined I/O pinouts and front-panel design. The main functionalities of these systems range from mission management, communication management, payload management, flight control system and navigation system management. The system architecture is based on a modular architecture, which can be arranged in order to meet user requirements, including development according to DO-178B/C and DO-254.

Mission Tactical Systems CES Mission Tactical Systems are installed in various platforms, including manned fixed wing, helicopters and UAV. CES produces two different types of systems; safety-critical and ISR/C3I. Our safety-critical mission tactical systems manage data, which directly influence the flight strategy of the aircraft. The manipulated data is control type, typically with a low bandwidth requirement. Our mission tactical systems for ISR/C3I applications addresses high bandwidth acquisition/communication functions from a suite of sensors and payload. Please Login for Fact Sheet
UAV
Mission Computers
CES Mission Computers for UAV systems provide high-level mission management and payload management functionalities. Processing power is provided by one or more CES processor boards, which communicate over VME/VPX and/or high-speed serial links. A large variety of avionic interfaces are available from CES, including MIL-STD-1553, ARINC 429, RS-422/485 and many others. Video processing capabilities include digital and analog video input and output, still image and streaming video compression, as well as custom processing in the CPU or FPGA. These systems are typically integrated into a sealed military ATR enclosure, and are qualified to withstand the most severe environmental conditions. Please Login for Fact Sheet
