Raytheon apambana mgwirizano wa Space Force OCX kuti asinthe IBM kit ya GPS III

Ikukhala ikusintha makompyuta a IBM omwe amagwiritsidwa ntchito pano kuyang'anira gulu la nyenyezi la GPS ndi makina ochokera ku Hewlett Packard Enterprise, pansi pa mgwirizano womwe ndi wamtengo wapatali $ 378m. Ntchitoyi ikuyenera kumalizidwa pofika Epulo 2022 ndipo ndi gawo la pulogalamu yayikulu ya GPS Enterprise Modernization ya GPS III.

OCX idapangidwa kuti ikwaniritse satellite kawiri konse, kukonza zachitetezo cha cyber, kuwongolera kolondola, olandila padziko lonse lapansi olandila zinthu zamakono motsutsana ndi kupanikizana komanso kupezeka mosavuta m'malo ovuta.

"OCX ndiyofunika kupitiriza kuyesetsa kwambiri kuti dziko likhale lamakono kukhala ndi zida zankhondo komanso zachitukuko, kuphatikiza chitetezo, kulunjika, kudalirika, ndi kukhulupirika," atero a Barbara Baker, mtsogoleri wamkulu wa bungwe la SMC Command. "OCX ipereka zida zokhazikika, zodalirika za GPS kwa ozimitsa nkhondo aku America, othandizira anzawo, ndi ogwiritsa ntchito boma."

Kuthamangitsidwa kwa IBM kit kudayambitsidwa kale ndi IBM x86 line line yomwe idagulitsidwa ku Lenovo, IBM ikudzipereka kuthandiza ma hardware awo mpaka Ogasiti 2022.

"Kwa zaka ziwiri ndi theka zapitazi, popeza OCX idachoka ku Nunn McCurdy, a Raytheon akhala akuchita monga momwe anakonzera, kutipatsa chidaliro kuti OCX itha kusintha zochitika," watero Lt. Gen. John Thompson, wamkulu wa SMC. "Kukula kwa mapulogalamu adamaliza kugwa komaliza ndipo pulogalamuyi ili mgulu la mayeso. Pasanathe chaka, Raytheon adzaperekera pulogalamu yoyambira yotsogola ya gulu la GPS.

"Izi zidatilimbitsa mtima kuti tili ndi njira yabwino yogwiritsira ntchito zida za OCX zomwe zingatipatse chitetezo cha nthawi yayitali chomwe chimakwaniritsa zofunikira zathu zachitetezo cha cyber," watero a Lt.Col Thomas Gabriele, mtsogoleri wachuma wa OCX. "Pamene Raytheon akupitilizabe kutsatira mgwirizano wawo, kuthana ndi mavuto osatetezeka a IBM pa intaneti ndikwanzeru kuperekera boma chisanachitike. Ngakhale kusinthaku motsogozedwa ndi boma kudzasokoneza dongosolo la a Raytheon, boma likuyankha kuti a Raytheon apereke mapulogalamu oyenerera asadaphatikizidwe pa pulatifomu ya HPE ndikutumiza malo ogwirira ntchito.

Sabata yatha bungwe la US SPace Force lidalengeza za mgwirizanowu, ndipo dzulo dipatimenti ya chitetezo ku US idatulutsa zokhudzana ndi mgwirizanowu.

"Kusintha kwa mgwirizano kudzafunika kuti Raytheon asinthe zida za IBM ndi zida za HPE m'malo mwa OCX Block 1 Deliveable Environments," adatero chilengezocho. "Ntchito zichitidwa ku Aurora, Colado, ndipo zikuyembekezeka kumaliza pa Epulo 30, 2022."

Space and Missile Systems Center imakhazikitsidwa ku Los Angeles Air Force Base. Komanso kuyang'anira ma GPS omwe ali ndi udindo wake ndi monga kulumikizana ndi ma satellite asitikali, ma satellites azitetezedwe, chitetezo chamlengalenga, machitidwe osiyanasiyana, ma satellite oyang'anira ma satellite, machitidwe a malo ozungulira, komanso luso lowonetsa malo.

Nambala-36 ku Schriever Air Force Base, Colorado, Jan. 27, 2020. SVN-36 idakhazikitsidwa pa Marichi 10, 1994, ndipo idapitilira zaka zisanu ndi ziwiri.
