The FELIN system, a French acronym translated as Foot Soldier with Integrated Equipment and Connections, uses Aonix PERC virtual machine as a run-time environment for parts of the application written in Java language requiring high reliability and determinism. The FELIN system includes a complete armament system focused on the foot soldier that will significantly improve the foot soldiers' capability and reactivity in the field. With FELIN, the soldier will be able to carry out mission objectives at day or night. Operating within a larger communications network, the infantry will be able to transmit data and video images in addition to communicating via radiotelegraphy. Ballistic protection of the soldiers will be optimized with specific protection against NBC NBC in full National Broadcasting Co. Major U.S. commercial broadcasting company.
