Vetronics Systems
Curtiss Wright Controls Defense Solutions provides rugged integrated vehicle electronics (vetronics) systems that match the needs of client-specific vehicle platform requirements. Our large variety of sturdy deployed chassis and our electronic systems development expertise enables us to provide vertronics solutions with reduced size, weight and power (SWaP).
Curtiss-Wright Controls vetronics systems fully integrate multiple LRUs and functions for communication and control/coordinate functions such as computer resources, data control/distribution, crew controls/displays and power generation/management.
Defense Solutions' vetronics products are at the hub vehicle platforms, serving as the digital brains. The Hull Electronics Unit is a computer and managed Ethernet Switch designed to control the electrical systems of ground combat and amphibious vehicles. Our fully redundant vetronics computer provides the hardware and software interfaces necessary to operate the vehicle’s mobility system including propulsion, steering, and self-protection, and inter-vehicle communication. Our vetronics subsystem accomplishes this task by packaging a Single Board Computer with CanBus and Utility Bus Mezzanine Cards, a redundant smart power supply, a 20 port Gigabit Ethernet Switch, and VME Backplane in a half ATR conduction cooled Chassis.
