Core Systems sells ATMOS rugged servers to NIWC Atlantic
SAN DIEGO (Aug. 25, 2025) — Core Systems has provided ATMOS rugged compute units to the Naval Information Warfare Center (NIWC) Atlantic. The units were procured by the Special Operations ISR Solutions Integrated Product Team for use in the Program Joint Threat Warning System–Air.
The ATMOS systems are undergoing evaluation as a potential next-generation primary rugged compute node. Testing will determine their ability to pair with software-defined radios to deliver dependable performance in maritime and airborne environments, where vibration, salt fog and temperature extremes can degrade traditional computing equipment.
The ATMOS platform is designed with a sealed chassis for corrosion resistance, extended thermal management for operation in high-heat conditions and reinforced construction to withstand repeated shock and vibration. Its modular architecture allows for rapid integration with evolving sensor payloads and communications systems, making it suitable for both manned and unmanned platforms.
“The ATMOS server was built for missions where failure is not an option,” said Chris Schaffner, president at Core Systems. “With high-performance processing, onboard battery backup and ruggedized design, it provides the resilience needed for naval and expeditionary operations in the harshest conditions.”
For more than a decade, Core Systems has partnered with leading defense contractors and U.S. Department of Defense programs to deliver rugged computing solutions that meet stringent military standards. The company’s systems are deployed worldwide in mission-critical applications, demonstrating a proven track record of reliability, survivability and performance under the most demanding conditions.
Core Systems designs and manufactures rugged computing solutions for defense, aerospace and security applications. The company provides custom and commercial off-the-shelf systems built to perform in the most challenging operational environments.
