Chatsworth, Calif. – September 12, 2026 -- Aitech has unveiled the 3U VPX C530 and SOSA-aligned U-C5300 GPGPU boards, delivering up to 9,728 CUDA cores, 304 Tensor Cores and 76 ray-tracing cores for defense and aerospace platforms. The rugged AI accelerators produce up to 35.8 TFLOPS of FP32 compute performance and 576 GB/s of memory bandwidth, targeting real-time AI inference at the tactical edge.
New boards replace prior-generation GPGPU configurations without increasing size, weight or power
The C530 and U-C5300 succeed Aitech's previous rugged GPU line, giving system integrators and mission computer manufacturers higher AI inference throughput and enhanced graphics performance within the same SWaP envelope. Both boards support PCIe Gen4 connectivity, CUDA software tools, and Windows and Linux operating systems.
