I would not equalize OO with UML.

Ada is a nice language. You'd probably need less tools when working in Ada,
either OO or not.

Class/object is a different story. Even if you don't need OOA for your
problem space. It depends on how much code you'd like to reuse. You can use
generics for that, or tagged types, which are traditionally counted for OO
and "classes." But in any case you will need to identify and refactor
these.
