Abstract

The E-2C cockpit is currently equipped with analog instrumentation that is rapidly becoming unsupportable. Retrofit of the E-2C with flat panel, multi-function displays will resolve the supportability problem and will provide new mission support capability for the pilot and copilot. This new capability has the potential of dramatically improving the mission effectiveness of the E-2C. This research project will identify the constraints and operating environment and survey existing and planned cockpit display technologies. TimePlus will determine E-2C cockpit retrofit requirements and trade off display technologies against the constraints operating environment, requirements and schedule to recomment 3 technology approaches for the retrofit program. The Phase II study plan tasks will generate a display subsystem specification for the E-2C retrofit, analyze the potential for a Navy-standard multi-function cockpit display, and develop an advanced crew concept for executing command and control mission in the E-2C with enhanced pilot and copilot functions.
