RTEMS isn't for the kind of missile you're thinking.

The kind of missile RTEMS was built for carries not bombs but science. The kind that put men on moons and get them back again.



Those are called rockets, not missiles.

And if you look at the "Applications" section on RTEMS website, the very first entry (https://www.rtems.org/applications/hardware/avenger/) says:

"The Avenger (http://www.boeing.com/history/boeing/avenger.html) is fully automated, short-range Avenger air defense system. It is a lightweight, highly mobile, easily transportable surface-to-air missile fire unit with eight Stinger missiles in two missile pods. It acquires, identifies, tracks and engages targets (low-flying helicopters or fixed-wing aircraft) from a stationery or moving position."
