L-3 Communications Link Simulation and Training (L-3 Link)
announced today that it has received a contract from Raytheon
Australia to build three F/A-18 Tactical Readiness Trainers for the
Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF).
The F/A-18 Tactical Readiness Trainers are integrated with
simulated controls, avionics, weapons and a flat panel display to view
out-the-window visual scenes. These part task training devices operate
on the same software as the three high fidelity F/A-18 Tactical
Operational Flight Trainers that L-3 Link delivered during 2006 as
part of the RAAF's Hornet Aircrew Training System.
"The Tactical Readiness Trainers will provide a low-cost,
complementary training capability to the F/A-18 Hornet Aircrew
Training System's Tactical Operational Flight Trainers," said Mike
Wallace, Vice President of Air Force and Navy Programs at L-3 Link
Simulation and Training. "These systems will offload some of the
procedural training now being conducted on F/A-18 Tactical Operational
Flight Trainers, enabling the high fidelity devices to support more
complex warfighting scenarios. The Tactical Readiness Trainers have
the potential to be integrated with the Tactical Operational Flight
Trainers in support of larger scale simulation exercises."
The three Tactical Readiness Trainers will be delivered to the
RAAF's two Hornet Aircrew Training System installations in late 2008.
