Lockheed Martin delivered the En Route Automation Modernization (ERAM) equipment to the FAA on budget and ahead of schedule last month, meeting a major milestone in the agency’s Flight Plan for modernizing the National Airspace System (NAS).

The en route ATC computer system is considered the heart, brain and backbone of the NAS, according to the FAA, and it will replace the software for the Host Computer System and its backup. It processes flight radar data, provides communications support and generates display data to air traffic controllers.
