Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Real Time Operating System (RTOS)
Detailed explanation-2: -aircraft control system is a hard real-time system, as a single flight error might be fatal.
Detailed explanation-3: -Avionics software is embedded software with legally mandated safety and reliability concerns used in avionics.
Detailed explanation-4: -Real-time systems are used when there are rigid time requirements like missile systems, air traffic control systems, robots etc. So, now it can be easily inferred that RTOS is an operating system that supports real-time applications by providing the correct result and, that too, within the deadline required.
Detailed explanation-5: -There are two RTOS architectures: monolithic and microkernel.
