WASHINGTON. Ruggedized computing provider Systel is introducing the latest addition to its Kite-Strike II embedded computer line at this week's AUSA Annual Meeting and Exposition.  

Systel President Aneesh Kothari talks with Tom Varcie of Military Embedded Systems about their newest rugged server, Sparrow-Strike. It features AI at the edge and compute at the edge.

Besides showcasing some of the world's best rugged embedded computers and rackmount servers at booth #1015, Systel is also launching three new products at AUSA Annual 2024. The NVIDIA Jetson-powered Sparrow-Strike and Kite-Strike II are getting new variants that trade the NVIDIA processors for Intel x86 processors. These new variants now give customers the option of choosing the intense AI processing power of the NVIDIA models or the flexibility of the x86 platform. The Systel line of small form factor MIL-SPEC rugged embedded computers are ideal for applications in combat vehicles including uncrewed vehicles with brutal SWaP-optimization requirements.

The U.S. Army is in a period of consequential modernization for its ground vehicle fleet. The vehicles that are set to be introduced over the remainder of this decade are likely to be in service for many decades to come, and will come up against a variety of threats in a range of different theatres. The need to easily upgrade electronic systems, spiral develop capabilities, and adhere to open standards, will be crucial for maintaining operational relevancy.
