In April 1967, UNIVAC received a contract from the US Navy for design, development, testing and delivery of the AN/UYK-8 microelectronics computer for use with the AN/TYA-20.
[1] The AN/UYK-8 was built to replace the CP-808 (Marine Corps air cooled AN/USQ-20 variant) in the Beach Relay Link-11 communication system,[2] the AN/TYQ-3 in a AN/TYA-20[3] It used the same 30-bit words and instruction set as the AN/USQ-17 and AN/USQ-20 Naval Tactical Data System (NTDS) computers, built with "first generation integrated circuits".
This also allowed for five 6-bit alphanumeric characters per word.
