El ada es efectivamente un lenguaje de origen militar, pero no es secreto, sigue un estandard internacional: viene en la suse, por ejemplo.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ada_%28programming_language%29
Ada is a structured, statically typed, imperative, and object-oriented high-level computer programming language based on Pascal. It was originally designed by a team led by Jean Ichbiah of CII Honeywell Bull under contract to the United States Department of Defense during 1977–1983 to supersede the hundreds of programming languages then used by the US Department of Defense (DoD). Ada is strongly typed and compilers are validated for reliability in mission-critical applications, such as avionics software. Ada is an international standard; the current version (known as Ada 2005) is defined by joint ISO/ANSI standard (ISO-8652:1995), combined with major Amendment ISO/IEC 8652:1995/Amd 1:2007.
Ada was named after Ada Lovelace (1815–1852), who is often credited as being the first computer programmer.[1]
Y tiene uso civil:
Because Ada is a strongly typed language, it has been used outside the military in commercial aviation projects, where a software bug can cause fatalities. The fly-by-wire system software in the Boeing 777 was written in Ada. The Canadian Automated Air Traffic System (completed in year 2000 by Raytheon Canada) was written in 1 million lines of Ada (SLOC count). It featured advanced (for the time) distributed processing, a distributed Ada database, and object-oriented design.

eh?! momento momento... schreee.... pak pak pak pak toc, shuuuu, tilin tilin tilin glu glu glu aaaagghhh quema quema me han engañado!! bueno vale, al final ya no estudio sistemas y tampoco voy a ver a ese docente. =P lo que no cuentan en el articulo, que si esta interesante, es, y que mas sucede con ADA, solo es un lenguaje de programacion de sistemas criticos? hablan de muchas de sus bondades pero no mucho de sus contras. Por que no sera un poco mas comun. Cuantos lenguajes de programacion estan asi olvidados. Me pregunto si aqui usan UML... Jo!
