Tri-Service Open Architecture Interoperability Demonstration TIM & Expo (Booth #27) – SOLOMONS LANDING, MD – March 15, 2022 – Curtiss-Wright’s Defense Solutions division, a leading supplier of modular open systems approach(MOSA) based solutions engineered to succeed, announced that it will present a wide range of open architecture interoperable solutions, in collaboration with best-in-class technology partners, at the Tri-Service Open Architecture Interoperability Demonstration (TSOA-ID) TIM & Expo, being held March 15, 2022, at the Solomons Inn Resort & Marina, Maryland. The key messages of the TSOA-ID are the principles and innovations of MOSA and the benefits of interoperability that it delivers for easing, speeding, and lowering the cost of solutions for our warfighters. In addition to serving as Distinguished Host for TSOA-ID, Curtiss-Wright will support the MOSA messages by presenting numerous demonstrations of interoperable open architecture based solutions in its main booth (Booth #27), in the Curtiss-Wright Partner Demo Pavilion, and in the booths of a variety of leading industry partners. Curtiss-Wright will show a breadth of deployable systems and lab assets based on open standards, including VICTORY, CMOSS, and others, from leading standards organizations, such as the SOSA Consortium, the FACE Consortium, IEEE, and VITA.

In its main booth, Curtiss-Wright is setting up a SOSA Integration Lab, and together with partners, including Annapolis Micro Systems, Behlman, Crossfield, LCR, NI, and REDCOM, will demonstrate a broad range of rugged MOSA solutions that showcase interoperability for high-performance processing, tactical battlefield communications, networking, secure data storage, and more. The demos will feature Curtiss-Wright OpenVPX hardware, Parvus® hardware and software and PacStar® software.  In addition, the Curtiss-Wright Partner Demo Pavilion will play host to demonstrations of open standards based deployable systems and lab assets based from Curtiss-Wright and its partners, such as 3dB Labs, ForcePoint, L3Harris and LCR.

“At TSOA-ID 2022, in support of MOSA principles and innovation, we are proud to highlight Curtiss-Wright’s compatibility with other hardware and software from trusted third-party partners,” said Chris Wiltsey, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Curtiss-Wright Defense Solutions. “During TSOA-ID, we will showcase interoperability for high-performance processing, tactical battlefield communications, networking, secure data storage, and more. In addition to hosting our SOSA Integration Lab, the Curtiss-Wright booth will host numerous demos including the company’s  TCG HUNTR Tactical Data Link Hub and Network Translator, and highlight compatibility with other hardware and software from trusted third-party partners.”

In the main Curtiss-Wright booth, a network backbone will connect all the demo equipment and virtual machines, allowing all the demos to be accessed from any one workstation for an everything-from-everywhere demo approach. The network will use a Curtiss-Wright Parvus DuraNET® 3300 Cisco® switch and two Curtiss-Wright Parvus DuraCOR® 311 mission computers which will serve as workstations for the demos, as well as Curtiss-Wright AVDU and GVDU touchscreen displays. Curtiss-Wright PacStar® IQ-Core® Software will be used to map and manage all network activity.

Curtiss-Wright MOSA Demonstrations will include:

These demos will highlight how the interoperability of SOSA-aligned solutions enables a system built for one specific mission to be leveraged to support new missions, with little or no modification.

In addition to its main booth, Curtiss-Wright will also host the Curtiss-Wright Partner Demo Pavilion. MOSA solutions on display in the Pavilion will include:

Curtiss-Wright offers a broad range of CMOSS/SOSA- aligned system building blocks, including:
