A proprietary real-time operating system JetOS ("Jet OS") has been created to control the avionics of the new Russian aircraft MC-21-310 and SJ-100. The software was created at the State Research Institute of Aviation Systems (GosNIIAS).
The project started back in 2016. Prior to that, foreign systems VxWorks 653, MACS2, PikeOS or LynxOS-178 were used on domestic aircraft.
The creation of JetOS RTOS at the start of the project in 2017 included main code in C, support for the global aviation standard ARINC 653 services, OpenGL services support and international requirements DO-178C (КT-178C).
And the architecture included a division into platform-dependent and platform-independent components. The system was decided to be used not only on the MC-21-310 and the import-substituted SJ-100 "Superjet", but also in the creation of advanced aircraft.
JetOS allows displaying navigation, onboard flight systems information and other important characteristics on domestic multi-function cockpit displays.
Earlier www1.ru reported that a video of the tests of the new PD-35 aircraft engine has appeared, but there is no aircraft for it yet.
