If you strongly insist on the particular output format (1:1), you should use DateFormatSymbols additionally.

    final DateFormatSymbols dfs = new DateFormatSymbols();
    dfs.setShortMonths(new String[]{
        "JAN", "FEB", "MAR", "APR", "MAY", "JUN",
        "JUL", "AUG", "SEP", "OCT", "NOV", "DEC"});
    final DateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MMM-yy HH:mm:ss.SSS000000 a", dfs);
    System.out.println(df.format(new Timestamp(System.currentTimeMillis())));

And please remember, that DateFormat is not thread-safe.

You can use the SimpleDateFormat:

        Calendar firstTime = Calendar.getInstance();
        SimpleDateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat();
        df.applyPattern("dd-MMM-yy HH:mm:ss.SSS000000 aa");

        System.out.println(df.format(firstTime.getTimeInMillis()).toUpperCase());

I have put "0"s after SSS because the time you get is in miliseconds and it doesn't make any sense to have more than three "S"s but that's the requirement.

The toUpperCase is another requirement("Jan" was not enough).
