Curtiss-Wright Completes VICTORY Validation of Rugged Mobile IP Router
Subsystem with Integrated Cisco® IOS® Router
Parvus DuraMAR 5915 is believed to be first Router Component Type validated to
updated VICTORY router component type specification
AUSA 2014, Washington, D.C. (Booth #7809) – October 13-15, 2014 – Curtiss-Wright
Corporation (NYSE: CW) today announced that its Defense Solutions division, a Cisco®
Systems Solution Technology Integration (STI) partner, has successfully completed validation
testing to VICTORY (Vehicular Integration for C4ISR/EW Interoperability) specifications for its
Parvus DuraMAR 5915 mobile IP Router subsystem which is based on the Cisco 5915
Embedded Services Router (ESR) running the Cisco Advanced Enterprise Internetwork
Operating System (IOS®). The compliance testing results confirmed that the commercial-offthe-shelf (COTS) DuraMAR 5915 effectively supports the U.S. Army’s VICTORY initiative. The
rugged SWaP-C (space/weight/power/cost) optimized DuraMAR 5915, an ITAR-Free product,
supports VICTORY-compliant networking backbone architectures and is believed to be the first
Router Component Type device to be successfully validated to VICTORY.
About the Parvus DuraMAR 5915
Designed to deliver optimal networking performance in all mobile, harsh conditions, the rugged,
small form factor DuraMAR 5915 subsystem is qualified to meet MIL-STD-810G, MIL-STD461F, MIL-STD-1275, and MIL-STD-704F standards. Thanks to its industry standard Cisco IOSbased routing architecture, the unit speeds and simplifies the integration of networking routing
and switching functionality in deployed industrial, along with military and commercial aerospace
applications such as tactical ground vehicles and rotary and fixed wing aircraft, while reducing
user training requirements. It enables system integrators to deploy Cisco Mobile Ready Net
capabilities, including data, video, and voice services, virtually anywhere LAN or WAN
connectivity may be required, especially in mobile, airborne, ground, manned or unmanned
vehicle and sensor applications.
“As an active member of the VICTORY standards body, Curtiss-Wright is proud to be able to
announce the first successful VICTORY validation testing of a network router, our rugged,
SWaP-C optimized Parvus DuraMAR 5915,” said Lynn Bamford, Senior Vice President and
Curtiss-Wright Corporation • Page 2
General Manager, Defense Solutions division. “The DuraMAR 5915 helps system integrators
extend the Cisco Systems Enterprise Networking Infrastructure beyond the reach of traditional
fixed-networks into mobile and embedded networking applications at the extreme edge of the
network, and its adherence to the VICTORY standard helps reduce SWaP-C while enhancing
system interoperability to increase the warfighter’s effectiveness.”
The DuraMAR 5915 subsystem complements Curtiss-Wright’s Parvus DuraNET 30-2020 Cisco
IOS-based Ethernet Switch, Parvus DuraNET 20-10 20-port GbE Switch, and Parvus DuraCOR
80-40 Core i7-based mission computer subsystems in IP networking technology refresh and
situational awareness upgrade applications deployed at the tactical network edge. When
optionally integrated with a DuraCOR mission computer, the DuraNET 5915 forms the basis of a
DuraWORX system to deliver further levels of LRU and SWaP-C reduction. Initially validated
against VICTORY specification v6.1, the DuraMAR 5915 is also slated to be reviewed to the
newer v6.1.1 recently adopted by the VICTORY Standards Organization (VSO).
Fulfilling the Promise of VICTORY
Today’s combat vehicles are typically deployed with multiple independent systems that have no
ability to share their functionalities or data. To address and mitigate this problem, the U.S.
Army’s VICTORY initiative encourages the use of COTS open-system standards that reduce
redundancy and make additional space available by optimizing SWaP-C. Curtiss-Wright is
helping to advance the use of VICTORY through the development of innovative rugged COTS
subsystems and modules designed to support the new standard. In 2012, Curtiss-Wright
introduced the Digital Beachhead™ 16-port Gigabit Ethernet (GigE) Network Switch combined
with a high performance, power efficient Vehicle Management Computer, the industry’s first lowcost rugged COTS solution for modernizing ground vehicles to comply with the VICTORY
standard.
