CASTLE: The Next Generation of Navy Flight Simulation

Abstract

The Controls Analysis and Simulation Test Loop Environment (CASTLE) aircraft simulation environment has been in development by the United States Navy since 1986, and has become a proven and effective tool used for thousands of hours of piloted simulation each year CASTLE can he used for such diverse purposes as desktop analysis of flight maneuvers, flight path reconstruction and visualization, pilot-in-the-loop operation in a laboratory environment, and real-time simulation on the desktop. New features are still being added to CASTLE, with improvement to the software being made on a continual basis.
