Aircrew System Development
Abstract
AIRCREW SYSTEMS: Laser Eye Protection (LEP), Enhanced Visual Acuity (EVA), Aircrew Systems (AS), and Hearing Protection and Speech Intelligibility (HPSI). Under the above projects, LEP provides Fixed and Rotary wing pilots/aircrew with both self and threat multi-wavelength protection during day/night unaided and Night Vision Goggle aided missions. LEP will consist of a suite of products to include spectacles, goggles and visors. The LEP (visor, spectacle or goggle format) is being developed for compatibility with all required USN/USMC aircraft, Aviation Life Support Equipment, cockpit displays, night vision and fire control systems. EVA provides advanced day/night vision/Head Up Display (HUD) capability to address critical capability gaps in low and no light illumination levels (night vision). EVA will be integrated on current aircraft through a common interface allowing incremental, modular approach to fielding full capability and future upgrades. Future increments will provide enhanced aircrew situational awareness in degraded visual environment. Aircrew Systems includes State of the Art (SOA) and Survival Systems which provides for technology pacing through continuing evaluation of survival, clothing and other aircrew systems in order to fill capability gaps, develop aircrew endurance and performance, safety and enhance survivability. HPSI provides for protection of aircrew from temporary hearing damage and permanent hearing loss and allows for effective comprehension of radio or Internal Communication System (ICS) transmissions for safety of flight and mission effectiveness. AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS: Aircraft Systems include studies for Advanced Crash Protection, SOA, and Survival Systems. SOA provides for the yearly evaluation of the survival systems that evaluate performance, develop endurance, fill capability gaps for safety and enhanced survivability.
