Airborne tactical information management system in-cockpit mission replanning and rehearsal (ATIMS/ICMRR)

Abstract

The United States Navy Program Executive Office for Tactical Aircraft Programs is developing an Airborne Tactical Information Management System (ATIMS) capability under the Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command (SPAWAR-32) Real Time Support for Joint Power Projection Advanced Technology Demonstration (ATD) program. The ATIMS project is leveraging modular processing, advanced display and virtual reality technology to demonstrate a capability that provides enhanced flight situation awareness of engagement parameters, exploitation of information for mission alternative selection and more responsive unit level mission planning and rehearsal. The ATIMS project is focused on developing tactical information management and cockpit automation technology to simultaneously reduce pilot workload, reduce system avionics cost, enhance operational flexibility and increase mission effectiveness for air-to-air or air-to-ground combat operations. In a cooperative effort with the Air Force Avionics Directorate, Wright Laboratory (WL/AART-3), the In-Cockpit Mission Replanning and Rehearsal (ICMRR) program is providing ATIMS concept development, long-term master planning and technology demonstration integration support.<>
