FACE Technical Standard – Driving Commonality in Avionics Systems

Applying open architecture and open standards to modern avionics systems has been the goal of the Future Airborne Capability Environment (FACE) since its inception. The FACE 3.0 standard enables reuse software elements via common application programming interfaces (API). With 80%-90% percent of military avionics development costs coming from software, such reuse presents a huge long-term cost savings to the taxpayer and also enables faster deployment of technology to warfighters.

This webcast with a panel of industry experts will detail how FACE 3.0 benefits rotary-wing, fixed-wing, VTOL, and unmanned aircraft.
