The U.S. Navy increases longevity of military platforms by upgrading key subsystems and components. Download of flight data has always been time consuming operation requiring participation of ground crew. POC offers a new download solution to efficiently transfer large amounts of flight data wirelessly with a seamless interface to the current flight data analysis software. At present, this data is transferred over wired connections that a maintenance crew member must set up and operate. In this context, Physical Optics Corporation (POC) is proposing to develop an advanced, digital video/audio/data Universal Avionics Recorder (UAR) that combines all of the capabilities of the current Airborne Data Recorder (ADR) and Mission Data Loader (MDL) and adds new capabilities not available on the T-45. The UAR will also bring new functionalities, including wireless download/upload of mission- and MFOQA-related data (fully supporting MFOQA requirements) and also supporting the Terrain Avoidance Warning System (TAWS). The TAWS represents a continuation effort for Controlled Flight Into Terrain (CFIT) protection as mandated in the Ground Proximity Warning System (GPWS). In particular, the UAR will combine the functionality of the existing ADR, Advanced Signal Data Computer (ASDC), Signal Data Computer (SDC), Digital Video Recorder (DVR), and MDL into one unit.
