Collecting and recording data during system development and testing can not only provide data sources for the performance evaluation of system function, but also provide a means for reproducing the battlefield experimental situation. In the paper, based on distributed time mechanism, network monitoring, data capture, and multi-cache recording, a data acquisition and recording system are designed for the actual needs in projects. The system design includes the system composition and architecture, and the design and implementation of key technologies. Simulation application was carried out according to the design content, and the performance indicators during the system development test were tested and analyzed. Experimental results show that this data acquisition and recording system not only runs efficiently, but also satisfies the requirements during the system development test stage.
