GE Intelligent Platforms’ broad range of rugged systems
products give prime contractors just the right level of
ruggedization necessary for the environmental conditions
involved with sea-going operations. Whether in the protective
environment of a control room, the sea-sprayed deck or the
high altitudes of an unmanned aerial vehicle, GE can provide a
system that will provide the needed combination of longevity
and upgradability that sea-going applications demand.
Given that sea systems often must remain in place for decades,
we strive to develop products that can survive numerous
technology upgrades with a minimum of physical or electrical
reconfiguration and recertification. As much as possible, GE
designs in the ability to swap out COTS processors or memory
chips without changing the board’s physical dimensions or
electrical characteristics.
GE has been selected by contractors to provide systems
hardware and software for numerous applications throughout
the spectrum of sea operations:
sea systems
›ADCAP (Raytheon)
›SQQ-89 (Lockheed Martin)
›ALFS/LAMPS (Raytheon)
›LFAS (DRA)
›NSSN-SIM/STIM (DSR)
›P3 upgrade (Boeing)
›P8 MMA (Boeing)
›Fire Scout (Northrop Grumman)
›AN/BPS-16 (Northrop Grumman)
›Shipboard network control
›Sensor processing
›Target detection and tracking
›Communications and IFF
›Fire control computers
›Integrated display units
With decades of experience in sea systems, chances are
very good that GE already has strong experience in a given
technology challenge. We are a leading supplier of sonar
technology, with installations on more than 400 vessels around
the world including the US Navy’s Virginia class submarines.
Our use of COTS technology has enabled us to leverage new
multi-core processors and serial switched fabrics for a range
of applications such as radar systems. We have developed a
wide selection of communications technologies necessary for
sea operations, including Software Defined radio transceivers
and standards-based systems, switches and I/O modules. GE’s
ballistic predictors provide full ballistic prediction to increase
the probability of a first-round hit, while our Dynamic Gun
Alignment system affords an automated, video-based solution
for sea-going weapon system alignment.
