UltraEAK™ Vehicle Data & Power

Ultra has been at the forefront of the effort to generate generic architectures for soldiers, vehicles & bases.

Over 100 years of business

On site manufacturing in the UK

Industry leading quality

Over 40 years of electronics for military platforms

In order to integrate equipment and electronics into a fighting vehicle, complex, bespoke and often expensive engineering solutions have previously been required.

Generic Vehicle Architecture (GVA) provides a cost effective open, distributed and modular power and data backbone providing simpler integration of multiple sensors, weapons, communications and platform management systems. In addition the architecture facilitates future technology upgrades. GVA is part of the larger UK MoD Land Open Systems Architecture (LOSA) approach that is mandated for future systems integration and interoperability in the military land domain. The LOSA framework also includes Generic Base Architecture (GBA) and Generic Soldier Architecture (GSA) in which Ultra PCS also specialise.

Ultra PCS offers products and expertise in the implementation of Generic Vehicle Architecture (GVA) for military vehicles, compliant with both UK and NATO requirements, as well as other standards such as VICTORY in the US.

Platform Gateway Interface (PGI)

The UltraPGI software is a cornerstone of the UltraEAK^TM system, reusing existing modules and developing new ones only when necessary, ensuring cost-effective and efficient solutions. Its open architecture API empowers vehicle integrators and third-party manufacturers to create plugins that enhance the overall system, providing unmatched flexibility and scalability.

Interoperability

Achieving seamless interoperability between vehicle and soldier systems is a core focus of the UltraEAK^TM. This is facilitated by the vehicle-mounted Infantry Power and Data Unit (IPDU), which ensures that all systems work in unison, enhancing mission effectiveness and operational efficiency.

The Ultra Electronic Architecture Kit represents the future of integrated military systems, delivering reliable, scalable, and flexible solutions that meet the demands of modern warfare.
