3D-printed F-14 Tomcat uses an FPGA recreation of the ‘world’s first microprocessor' — CADC’s MP944 chip controls the fighter’s swing-wing system, among other things
- FPGA and embedded systems expert Adam Taylor has recreated the U.
- Navy’s F-14 Tomcat’s Central Air Data Computer (CADC) in an FPGA.
- The CADC is famous for being the brains behind the F14’s advanced fighter capabilities including the control of the aircraft’s signature articulated sweep-wing system.
