Abstract

An integrated avionic integration and support facility for advanced aircraft is described, as are the engineering systems used in the development and integration process. Several types of stations are used for various development stages. The functions of the stations vary, but common architecture, hardware subsystems and software packages are used in stations implementation. This approach provides substantial benefits in facility design, usage and maintenance. The main and most complex station is the Dynamic Test Station (DTS). The DTS functions, architecture and software are described in detail. One of the features of the system is the usage of some actual aircraft computers with their operational software, while maintaining the capability to control the environment of the unit under test
