Benefits

Affordable
Costly requalification avoided through digital isolation of the mission systems from flight critical avionics.
Innovative
Rapid technology insertion enabled by an open architecture, modular design. The system enables better interoperability and isolation of the Air Vehicle / Mission System for rapid, cost-effective upgrades upon mature open standards, such as FACE, HOST, SOSA and more.
Adaptability for Overmatch
Bell’s open architecture digital backbone ensures an adaptability, reconfigurable and interoperable weapon system has the right capability for the mission when needed.
