> A AN/UYK-43 is most *DEFINITELY* not VMS-based. It was built by Unisys.
In the world of US military electronics procurement - Anything Is Possible!
Very often, the firm that designs an electronic system for the military
is not the firm that ends up making the system. It would be quite
possible for Unisys to produce (under a very strict license) a DEC
machine. Likewise, IBM could make DG designed boxes. It often gets weird
- Helena Rubenstein (maker of lipstick and other cosmetics) was making
radios for a while.
Maybe you are completely correct about the AN/UYK-43 - it might not be a
VMS based thing. Maybe not. The "built by" has nothing to do with it.
