![]() This would resolve tactical conflicts, maintain situational awareness, optimize decision making, and reduce pilot workload. He concluded that methods should and must be developed to analyze convergent technologies and must consider utility analysis to examine tradeoffs between aircrew and system functions. Eggleston and Kulwicki (1984) indicated that present design methods are unable to adequately identify, evaluate, and select system-wide attributes during design and integration. This challenge will require new concepts, tools, and methods that can achieve optimum integration of avionics and aircrew. ![]() Future tactical aircraft designs must take into account the likely excess task and information loading experienced by aircrews. There is general agreement among military planners that tomorrow’s air battle will pose a significant challenge to aircrews who will likely encounter sophisticated and numerically superior opponents. This material is intended for managers, engineers, human factor professionals, and test and evaluation flight crews improving mission performance in an increasingly complex environment. Topics include mission decomposition, critical task analysis, information requirements, function allocation, and crew station display features. This facilitates the analysis of system-wide functional attributes that represent key design drivers. This paper provides a top-down orientation that treats platform, avionics, weapons, and flight crew as an integrated system. Many observers insist higher quality front-end work be performed to reduce the growing number of back-end mistakes and cost overruns. As the complexity of our modern avionic systems increase, it is important to define operational requirements and crew station display features early in the design cycle. ![]() AbstractThis paper addresses the concepts, methods, apparatus, and tools used to establish the operational requirements and system architecture for an advanced mission performance aid (the smart cockpit) that targets aerial combat operations. ![]()
