Customized COTS Solutions for Defense & Aerospace

Bridging Standardization with Mission-Specific Requirements

At Cornet Technology India, we specialize in transforming Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) products into mission-ready solutions tailored for the rigorous demands of defense and aerospace sectors. Our Modified COTS (MCOTS) approach ensures that while leveraging the cost-effectiveness and reliability of standard products, we customize them to meet specific operational requirements without delving into proprietary details.

Understanding COTS & MCOTS

We blend the speed and value of Commercial‑Off‑The‑Shelf with the mission‑specific precision of Modified COTS for defense and aerospace programs.

COTS (Commercial‑Off‑The‑Shelf)

Standardized products that are readily available for integration — enabling rapid deployment and cost efficiency.

  • Short lead time
  • Proven reference designs
  • Lower NRE

MCOTS (Modified COTS)

Targeted adaptations to meet mission, environment, and legacy‑system constraints — while retaining the COTS cost and schedule advantages.

  • Form‑fit‑function compatibility
  • Interface & protocol tailoring
  • Ruggedization & certification support

While COTS solutions provide a foundation, they often require modifications to meet the stringent demands of defense and aerospace applications. Our MCOTS model bridges this gap, ensuring that products are not only cost-effective but also tailored to specific operational needs.

Our MCOTS Capabilities

We custom‑engineer standard boards and systems to your platform, form factor, and operational envelope.

Firmware & Software Customization

Board Support Packages, drivers, RTOS/middleware, and diagnostics aligned to your mission workflow.

Environmental Adaptations

Thermal design, conduction/liquid/hybrid cooling, shock & vibration, and EMI/EMC engineering.

Interface Reconfigurations

Signal, bus, and connector tailoring for platform compatibility and legacy integrations.

Form‑Fit‑Function Upgrades

Modernize legacy systems while preserving original mechanicals and I/O mappings.

Lifecycle Management

Roadmaps, obsolescence control, documentation, and certification (DO‑178C/DO‑254/DO‑160, FCC/CE/IEC).
