Safran Helicopter Engines et ZF Aviation Technology lancent le développement de l’Ardiden 3TP
Safran Helicopter Engines et ZF Aviation Technology (Allemagne) renforcent leur partenariat en lançant le développement de l'Ardiden 3TP, turbopropulseur destiné à des applications militaires européennes, notamment pour des drones, des avions d'entraînement et de transport. L'Ardiden 3TP est un système de propulsion au design mature avec des coûts d'utilisation et de maintenance réduits. Ce moteur 100% européen sera basé sur le générateur de gaz de l'Ardiden 3 et intègrera des technologies éprouvées gr'ce à un démonstrateur technologique actuellement testé en France. ZF Aviation Technology fournira le système d'entraînement des accessoires et le réducteur de l'hélice. «Avec son architecture flexible et facile à intégrer, le turbopropulseur répond aux besoins du marché en termes de facilité d'utilisation et d'entretien», déclare Burkhard Siebert, Directeur de ZF Aviation Technology. «L'Ardiden 3TP est l'assurance de protéger les intérêts européens dans les programmes stratégiques militaires et de susciter des opportunités sur les marchés exports», souligne de son côté Florent Chauvancy, Directeur des Ventes Avionneurs chez Safran Helicopter Engines.

The $25 million contract will provide a system that supports the military’s complex weather prediction workloads.
By Brandi Vincent, Through a strategic partnership unveiled Wednesday, the U.S. Air Force and Oak Ridge National Lab will acquire a high-performance supercomputing system from Cray Inc. that aims to improve weather forecasting for Air Force and Army operations across the globe. Under the $25 million contract, the new system—called HPC11—will bring supercomputing-as-a-service to the Air Force's 557th Weather Wing, which creates and supplies comprehensive terrestrial and space weather information to the two military branches. “The system's performance will be a significant increase over the existing [high-performance computing] capability and will provide Air Force weather operators with the ability to run the next generation of high-resolution, global and regional models, and satisfy existing and emerging warfighter needs for environmental impacts to operations planning,” Steven Wert, an Air Force official and member of the senior executive service said in a statement. The system is expected to help the Air Force execute its mission more effectively by offering new features that support the military's complex weather prediction workloads. Official expect the system to improve forecasts and weather threat assessments that insiders rely on. Supercomputer manufacturer Cray also recently announced it's delivering the world's fastest supercomputer to the Energy Department by 2021, which it plans to outfit with a first-of-its-kind storage system that can hold more than an exabyte of data. “This is a great example of the upcoming Exascale Era bringing a new set of technologies to bear on challenging problems and empowering the Air Force to more effectively execute on its important mission,” Cray's President and CEO Peter Ungaro said. The system is expected to be delivered at the end of the year and accepted in early 2020. The company also announced Wednesday that the Defense Department selected it for two contracts—together valued at $46 million—to provide supercomputer systems to accelerate research and development at the Army Research Lab, and the Army Engineering and Research Development Center. https://www.nextgov.com/emerging-tech/2019/08/air-force-and-oak-ridge-get-supercomputer-better-weather-forecasts/159037/
