Abstract

The author presents current and future plans of the Cockpit Integration Directorate and the Electronics Technology Directorate to develop an airborne graphics generator for future cockpits. The discussion includes plans of the Cockpit Integration Directorate to generate through current and future Air Force contracts, in cooperation with in-house research at the Cockpit Integration Directorate, a system-level VHSIC Hardware Description Language (VHDL) simulation of the airborne graphics generator. It is noted that VHDL provides an excellent platform for system-level simulations. Flight testing will be restricted to final adjustments and final concept demonstration
