The Navy is replacing the existing LCAC with the LCAC-SSC, a faster, more efficient vessel with the ability to carry more payload. L-3 Maritime Systems selected NAI's SIU35 for the new ship's Data Acquisition and Control System. Six "common" Data Acquisition units are located throughout the vessel and each system communicates via Ethernet to the mission processor located in the control bay, keeping unnecessary hardware out of this area and closer to the sensors being controlled. NAI's rugged, SWaP-C efficient and flexible, Configurable Open Systems Architecture™ (COSA®) enabled the customer to move forward with hardware decisions before knowing the final requirement, which helped to keep the program on schedule.
