Pilot Training Next (PTN) Development
Abstract
Pilot Training Next currently utilizes eight (8) T-6B aircraft equipped with heads-up and advanced situational awareness displays. Mission computers were temporarily modified to enable Air-to-Air and Air-to-Ground simulated weapons delivery. Numerous Virtual Reality (VR) Immersive Training Devices (ITDs) are also being utilized in the training curriculum. The aircraft and VR ITDs enable proper assessment of advanced pilot training concepts, techniques, procedures, and capabilities, while also providing a flexible architecture that incorporates Live, Virtual, and Constructive (LVC)elements into undergraduate pilot training. Efforts will be focused on validating new LVC and VR ITD concepts to develop processes and procedures to increase pilot production, improve and streamline existing undergraduate pilot training programs.
