Legacy weapon systems, such as attack aircraft, have taken advantage of embedded computers and software to provide enormous capabilities for flexibility and expandability. The provision of these capabilities has been at a cost, and that is in the dedicated software development facilities which have sprung up to support these legacy systems. Unfortunately, the costs of these dedicated facilities is becoming prohibitive. The Advanced Avionics Multi-Radar Software Support Study (AAMRSSS) project offers experience in handling the above problem. AAMRSSS studied the feasibility of using a dedicated Software Development Facility (SDF) to support multiple software system platforms. Issues of the study were: commonality; unique requirements of the new system to be added; platform priorities; and future expansion. In particular, this study has addressed supporting the AC-130U Gunship's Radar Operational Flight Program (OFF) in the F-15's Radar Software Development Facility.
