Raytheon conducted a detailed design review for the DDG 1000 Total Ship Computing Environment Infrastructure hardware. The Total Ship Computing Environment Infrastructure implements the Navy's open architecture strategy and has achieved a full commercial off-the-shelf solution. The review demonstrated that early component level testing results validate that the Total Ship Computing Environment Infrastructure full COTS solution meets the shipboard environmental requirements.

Designs were reviewed for data processing and storage, network communications and security, time and navigation data distribution, infrastructure adaptation, human interface and arrangements within electronic modular enclosures. With the on-time completion of this milestone, the Total Ship Computing Environment Infrastructure team has further demonstrated its commitment to the Navy's open architecture strategy.

The review, which took place at Raytheon Integrated Defense Systems headquarters in Tewksbury, Mass., involved stakeholders from all areas of the DDG 1000 program team. Among those present were representatives from Naval Surface Warfare Center, Northrop Grumman Ship Systems, Bath Iron Works and Lockheed Martin. The panel gave its approval to proceed with completion of the detailed design.

"It was an excellent review," said Gair Brown, Navy technical team lead.

Under the Navy's DDG 1000 Detail Design and Integration contract awarded in 2005, Raytheon IDS serves as the prime mission systems equipment integrator for all electronic and combat systems for the DDG 1000 Zumwalt Class Destroyer program. Community
