The Russian Flight Software I see on the
modules in the Int'l Space Station are
written in C. I'm talking about things like
the FGB.


They do use Ada for some of the models 
used in the trainers but the embedded
flight control stuff I've seen is plain
C.  I have no idea if this one example
carries over to the Soyuz flight 
control software.
