Abstract:

In preparation for this research effort entitled, Multi-Distributed Training Testbed, Air-to-Air, or MDT2 Air-to-Air, which had a requirement to handle up to 14 independent, dynamic aircraft entities, it was brought to light that the existing Weapons System Trainers WSTs in use at the Aircrew Training Research Division of Armstrong Laboratorys Human Resources DirectorateALHRA had real-time limitations of only five dynamic, independent aircraft. The reason for this was that Operational Flight TrainersOFTs had the five-target limit and the WST codewhich was the same as the Air Force Reserve Multitask Trainer MTT code based on the OFT legacy code. The purpose of this technical effort was to modify the F-16 WST software to enable the WST to handle up to 25 independent, dynamic aircraft generated in a Distributed Interactive Simulation DIS network and handed to the host through a network interface unit.
