F/A-18C Cockpit Module
The Innovation
ETC provides the FA-18C cockpit module as the benchmark for cost effectiveness and high fidelity flight simulation.
By repurposing an actual decommissioned FA-18C into a state-of-the-art flight simulator with three unique uses, ETC delivers the highest fidelity simulator, with the ultimate in costs savings.
Product Innovation – Aircraft
ETC has developed the optimal combination of using the front end of a real aircraft and augmenting it with modern technology to create the most cost effective, unique and realistic training environment available to jet pilots.
In addition, the cockpit module can be further utilized as part of the Phoenix, ETC’s high performance flyable motion system, for even a more realistic training experience with actual G-forces.
Aircraft Specific – The cockpit module can be engineered to authentically replicate any jet/strike fighter aircraft available – domestic or international – all we need is your out of service aircraft.
High Fidelity – The aircraft specific cockpit is identical to a live aircraft of that same model, because we start with the actual aircraft.
More Innovations
Enhanced FOV (efov)
Six years of research and development, coupled with an effort to meet and exceed the USAF and USN requirement for aircrew training ETC is pleased to provide its flexible and expanded Enhanced Field of View Visual System. Learn MoreInterchangeable Cockpits
Cockpit Modules are interchangeable in the ATFS-400 PHOENIX gondola in less than one (1) hour, with the assistance of only two individuals, enabling users to realistically simulate as many different tactical aircraft as there are available Cockpit Modules. Learn MoreNegative Gs
The ATFS-400 can faithfully replicate the motion and performance signature of the tactical aircraft simulated. This is especially important when replicating correct sustained ‘G’ forces, including flight in the negative ‘G’ environment. Learn MoreSpin Training
The ATFS-400 can provide Departure from Controlled Flight and Spin Training in a high performance motion system with a tactical aircraft cockpit.Learn More
