Abstract:

The report amends the Concept Formulation Report, Synthetic Flight Training System 2B24, to cover research and investigation into the technical and economic feasibility of operating one AH-56 cockpit and one CH-47 cockpit from the SFTS field unit computerinterface system. Computer storage, timing, and iteration rates, interface requirements, and instructor functions are analyzed. Required modifications of the basic-design field unit to accommodate the CH-47AAH-56 configuration are presented. Cost and scheduling are developed for expanding one of the eight basic-design field units to include all hardware and software required for the AH-56CH-47 simulation. The cost effectiveness of the expanded unit is analyzed. Author
