“Ada is an ideal language for an architecture-based environment. It allows designs to be abstract and at the same time provides the flexibility for each developer to concentrate on their part of the design. Two widely different projects, CCPDS-R and Cobra Dane, were delivered on time, under budget, and did what the user wanted. They both used the same architecture, the same standards, and the same language, Ada.”
Lt. General Carl G. O’Berry, Deputy Chief of Staff, .Command, Control, Communications, and Computers, Headquarters US Air Force, 1993

From the Script: SLIDE 45 - Quality Costs Less with Proper Use of Ada
Properly engineered software is quality software. Ada gives you this quality at reduced cost. General Carl O'Berry had this to say about it:
"Ada is an ideal language for an architecture-based environment.

Two widely different projects, CCPDS-R and Cobra Dane, were delivered on time, under budget and did what the user wanted.
