How New Wave Works Within MOSA Standards
New Wave Design builds rugged, high-performance network interfaces and computing devices that seamlessly integrate into Modular Open Systems Approach (MOSA)-compliant platforms. Our VITA-compliant XMCs, SOSA-Aligned 3U VPX, and other advanced solutions support mission-critical electronics like radar, signals intelligence, ISR systems, and beyond to ensure reliable performance in demanding military and aerospace environments. New Wave Design’s technology gives engineering teams and systems integrators the flexibility to adapt and innovate without being locked into proprietary systems, supporting the industry’s shift toward more affordable, agile, and future-ready solutions.
SOSA Standard
The Sensor Open Systems Architecture (SOSA) standard establishes a common framework for sensor processing, ensuring that military platforms can integrate new technologies without major redesigns. Built on OpenVPX, it defines hardware, software, and network requirements that enable seamless data sharing between radar, electronic warfare, and ISR systems. By standardizing interfaces, SOSA accelerates upgrades and simplifies system interoperability.
Plus — New Wave Design is a proud member of the SOSA Consortium.

CMOSS Standard
The C5ISR/EW Modular Open Suite of Standards (CMOSS) allows military platforms to consolidate mission-critical functions onto shared, modular hardware. This open framework supports software-defined radios, networking, and advanced computing while improving efficiency and reducing redundant components. With CMOSS, platforms can scale and evolve over time without requiring extensive hardware replacements.
The U.S. Army’s first CMOSS-compliant solution is the Common Mounted Form Factor (CMFF), an acquisition effort that enables the integration of multiple capabilities into a single, scalable hardware platform. With CMOSS and CMFF, platforms can evolve over time without requiring extensive hardware replacements.

FACE Standard
The Future Airborne Capability Environment (FACE) standard transforms how avionics software is developed and deployed. Instead of being tied to proprietary systems, software built to FACE specifications can be reused across different aircraft, speeding up integration and certification. By defining clear portability layers and data models, FACE streamlines development and lowers costs for defense aviation programs.

VICTORY Standard
The Vehicle Integration for C4ISR/EW Interoperability (VICTORY) standard modernizes ground vehicle networks by replacing point-to-point cabling with an Ethernet-based architecture. This shift allows mission systems — such as sensors, communications, and displays — to share data more efficiently and effectively. Time Sensitive Networks (TSN) are a key element of the VICTORY standard and interoperability within open architecture in ground vehicles.

MORA Standard
The Modular Open Radio Frequency Architecture (MORA) standard provides a flexible, software-driven approach to managing RF resources on military platforms. MORA decouples radio hardware from processing, giving platforms the flexibility to integrate new waveforms as needed. This approach enhances electronic warfare performance while eliminating many of the constraints tied to traditional hardware-based systems.
Featured Products
GVA Standard
The Generic Vehicle Architecture (GVA) standard ensures that military ground vehicles share a common computing and electronics infrastructure. By defining a standardized interface for vehicle sensors, power distribution, and displays, GVA improves operational flexibility and long-term sustainability. This makes it easier to introduce new technologies and maintain compatibility throughout vehicle fleets.
