Abstract

Naval Air Systems Command (AIR5117D) tasked the Flight Test Engineering Group (FTEG) of the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division (NAWCAD) to conduct a technical analysis of the Blue night vision device (NVD) Lighting Kit as installed on the KC-130 aircraft. As a part of this analysis FTEG was additionally tasked to prove a quick look evaluation of a manufacturer installed, ANVIS compatible, Head Up Display (HUD).
