Facilities supported Who we support
We primarily support the United States Navy. Our engineers work on site on the Naval Air Station, Patuxent River in beautiful St. Mary's County, Maryland. We are currently supporting the following labs:
  • ESTEL - E-2C
  • SAIL - Surface Aviation Interoperability Lab 
  • ACETEF - Air Combat Environment Test & Evaluation Facility
Distributed simulation
We have developed several software products for the distributed simulation protocols used by the Dept. of Defense. These products are front end processors that isolate simulation software, allowing it to adapt to different protocols without reprogramming. In addition to front end processors, we have developed several utility programs that aid in test preparation, execution and data analysis.

Our flight, navigation, IFF and ESM models are used daily in the E-2C Systems Test and Evaluation Laboratory (ESTEL) at NAS Patuxent River. Subsequently, we provide similar products to the Navy's Aegis Surface Aviation Interoperability Laboratory (SAIL).
