The Advanced Arresting Gear (click on the image to enlarge)

General Atomics developed, and installed on the USS Gerald Ford aircraft carrier, AAG HealthMap is a state-of-the art modular integrated Prognostic Health Management (PHM) system.

 

It was designed to provide needed higher reliability and safety margins, as well as to automatically manage the arrestment of a greater range of aircraft and reduce the fatigue impact load to the aircraft and pilot.

 

D2K, an experienced developer of G2™ powered solutions, was awarded a contract to apply their industry standard test-driven design and test methodology to verify and validate the PHM software.
