The development of a new generation electronic control system (RESU) and its operation are very expensive processes. To compensate for these costs, it is advisable to use ECU for a long period of time. However, during this time, new types of attack weapons and new methods of their use may appear, which makes the use of existing RESS ineffective. In this regard, to ensure a long period of use of the avionics equipment, it is advisable to provide for the possibility of painless modernization that meets the new requirements even at the stage of its development. To solve this problem, it is necessary to analyze the trends in the development of aerospace attack weapons and the RESS themselves, on the basis of which modernization can be carried out in the future. At the same time, even at the stage of development of the electronic control system, it is necessary to lay down an open architecture that allows relatively easy modernization of both the control and information parts of the radio control system. In addition, it is necessary to provide the current maintenance of the electronic control system during operation, which maintains its serviceable state.

The goal is to choose, based on the results of the analysis of trends in the development of military-technical confrontation, the type of architecture of a new generation of RESU and the method of its maintenance.

Approaches to the strategy for ensuring a long period of effective use of RESU were analyzed.

As a result of the analysis of the trends in the development of military-technical confrontation, recommendations were given on the directions of possible modernization, the use of an open architecture for building an electronic warfare system and the method of its maintenance, ensuring its long-term use.
