FlightSuite™ Quiet Cockpit Technology
Northrop Grumman’s FlightSuite™ offers versatility, operational reliability, maintainability, and best-value in a state-of-the-art avionics suite. This sophisticated avionics system is based upon a modular, open and adaptable architecture. The FlightSuite™ features an ergonomic crew/aircraft interface utilizing high-quality displays. Flight crews experience greater operational success because critical flight and mission information is immediately accessible in an intuitive format.
FlightSuite™ is CNS/ATM compliant up to 2020 and compatible with future CNS/ATM requirements for civil airspace after 2020 due to the growth capability afforded by this scalable modular system. Its CNS/ATM compliance is provided by the software contained in its FlightPro™ mission computers, together with the hardware features of its radios, transponders, inertial navigation systems, and global positioning systems. The architecture of FlightSuite™ consists of one or more FlightPro™ scalable mission computers, multi-function displays, computer display units, stores station control units, air data computers and standby attitude sensors, navigation and communication radios, keyboard units, remote control units, head-up displays, integrated helmet displays and weapon subsystems. FlightSuite™ integrates these components and streamlines them into a single, focused system. This dedicated suite offers the necessary resources to efficiently control the aircraft and execute the mission. The glass cockpit includes high resolution multi-function displays that provide full operability at all crew locations.
