Interface bridge for initializing a weapon with mission planning data

摘要

A military standard-1760 (MIL-STD-1760) interface bridge for storing mission planning data can include a housing, a translator device, a ground support equipment (GSE) connector, and non-volatile memory. The housing can include a MIL-STD-1760 connector on a first end and a weapon side connector on a second end. The translator device can translate a MIL-STD-1553 remote terminal (RT) protocol to a weapon side signaling protocol and translate the weapon side signaling protocol to the MIL-STD-1553 RT protocol. The GSE connector can be coupled to the housing and translator device for downloading mission planning data for a weapon. The non-volatile memory can be configured to store the mission planning data.
