Boeing delivers F-22 Raptor training simulators
Boeing has announced that it has delivered two F-22 Raptor training simulators with a 360-degree immersive visual environment to the US Air Force.
The two simulators were paired with the Constant Resolution Visual System (CRVS) and installed at US Air Force locations. The CRVS is a patented display that provides high-resolution imagery for pilots to train with nearly 20/20 acuity.
Col. Anthony Genatempo of the air force said: 'Boeing has delivered what are probably the most advanced high definition flight simulators I have experienced, and they are going to let our pilots realise training unlike any they’ve had before. That translates directly into mission readiness.'
This latest F-22 mission training centre delivery is the fourth of five mission training centres ordered by the air force. The fifth will be installed this year. Boeing will upgrade the previously delivered F-22 mission training centres with the CRVS as well.
The F-22 mission training centres also include instructional courseware, software and brief/debrief stations where student pilots can review recordings and data with an instructor.
