No More Mission Testing Blind Spots
Avionics, radar, C2, satellites validated end-to-end, even in air-gapped classified networks with Keysight Eggplant
Test Faster. Certify Sooner. Fly Confident.
Software powers today’s aerospace and defense systems, from radar feeds and avionics displays to C2 decision tools and secure ground networks. But when testing relies on brittle, manual methods, the result is always the same: delays, overruns, and operational risk.
Keysight Eggplant was built for environments where failure is not an option. It automates validation inside secure, air-gapped networks, accelerates certification under DO-178C and MIL-STD requirements, and ensures every mission system, legacy or modern, performs when it matters most.

Run Keysight Eggplant directly inside classified networks. No data leaves, no IP is exposed. Perfect for defense labs and sensitive programs.
AI-Driven Software Testing for Every Mission-Critical Defense System and Workflow
From avionics and radar to C2, satellites, and secure ground networks, Keysight Eggplant delivers end-to-end coverage, reliable performance, and audit-ready compliance in classified and air-gapped environments.
Stop Wasting Resources on Manual Lab Cycles
Defense programs spend millions running the same test steps by hand inside classified labs. Highly skilled engineers waste time re-validating instead of innovating. With Keysight Eggplant, repetitive regression is fully automated, freeing experts to focus on system integration and mission assurance.
Validate in Secure and Air-Gapped Environments
Testing in isolated defense networks is a unique challenge: you can't move data offsite and you can't rely on cloud tools. Keysight Eggplant runs natively inside locked-down systems, validating avionics software, satellite uplinks, and C2 workflows without exposing sensitive IP or compromising security.
Stay Ahead of Compliance, Not Buried by It
Certification under DO-178C, DO-330, MIL-STD-882, and NATO STANAGs demands exhaustive evidence. Manual test strategies create gaps and mountains of paperwork. Keysight Eggplant automatically links requirements to validated tests, producing audit-ready traceability that speeds certification and satisfies regulators.
Ensure Performance Under Pressure
In the field, slow radar refresh rates or unresponsive C2 interfaces aren’t just frustrating, they’re dangerous. Keysight Eggplant combines performance validation with continuous monitoring, so mission systems stay responsive, operators stay confident, and readiness is never compromised.

Talent Takes Flight: How Automation Reshapes AeroDef Tech
Aerospace and defense industry executives continue to struggle with hiring, training, and losing skilled workers. Defense firms see a tighter labor market and higher associated costs taking a toll on sales and profit margins. Teams must juggle staff, organize job fairs, and find workarounds to keep operations running smoothly, even as they ramp up production to meet increasing demand.

Aerospace and Defense Software Testing FAQs
Yes. Keysight Eggplant runs natively inside secure, isolated networks with no external data transfer. That makes it ideal for testing avionics, radar, satellite, and C2 systems in classified environments.
Absolutely. Defense programs often depend on decades-old GUIs and command software alongside modern digital platforms. Keysight Eggplant uses AI-driven computer vision to automate testing across both legacy systems and next-gen applications, ensuring they work together without introducing risk.
Keysight Eggplant valiates software, radar feeds, satellite communications, C2 interfaces, ISR platforms, secure ground stations, and ERP-driven logistics systems. It covers everything from operator consoles and legacy desktops to modern web-based mission platforms.
Keysight Eggplant provides full traceability, automatically linking requirementrs to validated tests. This helps programs demonstrate compliance with DO-178C, DO-330, MIL-STD-882, and NATO STANAGS, while reducing manual evidence gathering.
By automating regression and functional testing, Keysight Eggplant cuts validation cycles, catches defects earlier, and prevents performance issues. That means faster delivery, fewer mission delays, and systems operators can trust under pressure.
Keysight Eggplant adapts to evolving designs using AI-powered visual recognition. Whether a cockpit layout changes, a radar display is updated, or a C2 workflow evolves, tests remain resilient without brittle script maintenance.
Yes. Keysight Eggplant integrates with CI/CD tools like Jenkins and Azure DevOps, enabling continuous testing and real-time feedback loops even within secure defense labs.
