Zumwalt Readies For Production After Successful Navy Review. - Free Online Library

Raytheon successfully completed a test readiness review (TRR) of the DDG-1000 Zumwalt total-ship computing environment software, release seven, which involved 550,000 lines of code.

A Test Readiness Review (TRR) is conducted to determine if the system under review is ready to proceed into formal testing by deciding whether the test procedures are complete and verify their compliance with test plans and descriptions. A TRR is normally conducted before each major test configuration item including hardware and software and provides management with the assurance that a system has undergone a thorough test process and is ready for turnover to the next test phase.

The review represents the first delivery of combat system software, in addition to hull, mechanical and electrical ship control functionality.

The program also involved a test of the warship's AN/SPY-3 multi-function radar, which successfully tracked air targets using its diverse search and track modes, together with the new volume search.
