Naval UAVs use Linux after they had a Windows NT4 "smart ship" BSoD so hard it had to get towed back to port in the 90s.

Nah, they use RedHat and the dev team uses CentOS as these two binaries are compatible. I was a software developer for MQ-9. there is another is they use that is really obsolete but I won't comment on it as it's not the main platform that is used to communicate with the UAV and GCS.

Oh i forgot to mention, MQ-1 GCS uses a RTOS VxWorks and it's pretty shitty imo. Also I meant to say the OS used on the GCS not the UAV, I didn't develop for the UAV side of things so I don't know the details there but most likely it's a RTOS for all the embedded system they are using to control the servos etc.

telecom anon here

I have no experience with these terminals at all but every civilian communication terminal uses centOS as a hyperviser and redhat as the OS for the management hardware

I have never seen redhat not run inside a centos hyperviser, doesnt mean it's not possible though
