From the 1/13/03 Aviation Week & Space Technology, "AeroBytes", pg 393:
"Boeing is modifying B-1B bombers to carry a greater variety of smart
weapons in the Conventional Missions Upgrade Program, which includes
replacing the six computers in the avionics, navigation and weapons
systems with four more powerful units, each with a pair of PowerPC
processor cards. The new computers employ Green Hills Software's
Integrity real-time operating system to take advantage of
multiple-target capabilities and other new features, and programming
will be done in Ada with the company's AdaMulti development
environment."
Also, the article immediately preceding this one, about BAE Systems
Controls teaming up with DDC-I to develop Score-653 for safety critical
embedded systems, mentions that "Ada is considered a reliable language".
