Synopsys backs Artemis electronics modelling for lunar suits and connectivity.
-
Emerson launches NI CHESS for lab-based aerospace RF link validation.
-
Abaco Systems has launched the VP892, a rugged 3U VPX FPGA engine built around AMD’s VU13P, extending compute density, bandwidth, and programme life for demanding defence and industrial embedded platforms.
-
Samtec has launched an in-house Upscreen Testing service for military and aerospace interconnects, offering a faster route to lot screening, conformance inspection, and traceable qualification support around COTS-based designs.
-
BAE Systems has completed a Typhoon firing trial with the APKWS laser-guidance kit in the UK, opening a lower-cost path for counter-UAS integration while adding another weapons-upgrade thread to the fighter’s development roadmap.
-
Reliable Robotics has completed FAA detect-and-avoid data collection flights programme. The campaign generated validation data around airport operations and fed the next round of standards work for uncrewed aircraft integration.
