Brian says

<<If you can compile that C code as C++ then we have a translator that can
convert it to Ada95.  Most C code will compile using a C++ compiler.
When one says Ada I assume that the subject is Ada95 these days.  The
Ada95 produced by our translator might vary from one that produced Ada
from C code; the translation of a struct to an extendible type, for
example.  Those variances would represent the C++ improvements made to
C, so they might be helpful to those who enhance or maintain the Ada
code.

I hope you don't translate *all* structs to tagged types, this would be
an inappropriate choice.
