I have used Ada extensively a long time ago, on VAX/VMS..

Ada is well designed language (in the spirit of Pascal), but it is
also a big language. As far as I am aways, it not used much
anymore today, except, perhaps, in some niche areas.
The military used it  for safety-critical applications.

I am not aware whether it is used for any real-word *embedded*
applications. Due to its size and limited support I doubt it.
