automatic recording and comparison of test results to criteria data with specified tolerances provided so that ATG execution can occur singly from the set of all tests, in batches selected by the test personnel, and in total so that no human intervention is required and the test(s) runs autonomously to completion within 4 hours or less with or without training device hardware in the loop as selected by NAWCTSD test personnel.

Control Loading System (CLS) upgrade and refurbishment The control loading system and associated hardware shall meet the performance listed below:

Friction and inertia As a design goal, the friction and inertia of the installed CLS operating with a zero force model shall be less than the friction and inertia of the AH-1Z and UH-1Y aircraft flight controls. The friction and inertia of the aircraft flight control system cannot be accurately measured for the purposes of criteria data for trainer validation. The friction and inertia requirement is specified to emphasize the importance of proper mechanical design. It is essential that the friction and inertia be minimized in order to match aircraft force versus displacement and stick release tests (that are measurable) with enough margin to allow the trainer friction and inertial characteristics to be constructed via software modeling.

Coulomb friction Coulomb friction in each control axis shall be less than one pound using a quasi-static control sweep with a zero force model.

Viscous friction Viscous friction in each control axis shall be less than one pound, with no evidence of velocity limiting, using rapid control sweep with a zero force model.

Smoothness The total CLS actuators plus mechanical linkage and cockpit controls shall not exhibit any pilot perceivable resonances or instabilities as a result of pilot induced inputs during any simulated flight or malfunction conditions.

Stiffness As a design goal, the stiffness of the installed CLS shall be greater than the control system stiffness of the DBA aircraft throughout the full range of movement including the stops. The stiffness of the aircraft flight controls is not easily measured. However, it is essential that the stiffness of the trainer flight controls is designed greater than that of the aircraft in order to meet the desired mechanical characteristics tests via software modeling. The simulation of control stops shall exhibit no effects that are unrepresentative of the aircraft.

Flight control tolerances The pilot station shall provide flight controls that reflect the feel, damping, friction, force, inertia and response effects representative of similar actions in the modes of operation of the DBA using the tolerances specified in Appendix D.

Secondary control assembly Secondary control assemblies shall consist of the engine throttles and rotor brake.

Throttles The AH-1Z and UH-1Y trainer throttles shall:

a. replicate the form, fit, function of the DBA aircraft throttles throughout the normal operating flight envelope and all identified emergency procedures,

b. be automatically repositioned to a new flight condition or initial condition (IC) when the trainer is repositioned from the IOS,

c. meet the following tolerances

1) rotational displacement: ± 1%;

2) freeplay: 1/8 inch measured linearly at the circumference of the throttle;

3) friction, force, and throttle stop characteristics: Pilot qualitative assessment.

Rotor brake The AH-1Z and UH-1Y trainer rotor brake shall

a. replicate the form, fit and function of the DBA aircraft rotor brake in accordance with aircraft drawings and NATOPS procedures,

b. be actuated by the control loading system to provide accurate force feedback and representative functionality;

c. Meet the following tolerances

(1) applied force: ± 1lb or 10% whichever is greater.

System dynamic response This section establishes requirements for end to end dynamic response (from flight control input to first response) of the visual system, cockpit shaker system, and primary cockpit instruments to ensure efficient hardware/software interface design. The worst case throughput delay time (i.e. from step input to first detectable response) in the cueing systems described below shall not exceed 100 milliseconds and as a design goal, the relative responses of the cueing systems be closely coupled to provide integrated pilot sensory cues.

Instructor Operator Station (IOS) IOS computational systems performance The training devices IOS’s computational systems’ performance characteristics shall be IAW 3.1.13.2.3.

IOS monitor screens The IOS monitors shall

a. be touch screen enabled, and

b. not negatively impact the NVG visual scene.

IOS software The IOS shall utilize the Government provided functional software baseline provided at Post Award Conference (PAC).

Flight parameters IOS test page The IOS shall have

a. a page containing a consolidated list of flight test parameters to evaluate the aerodynamic fidelity of the trainer and include the following:

(1) flight test conditions,

(2) aircraft state parameters,

(3) control positions,

(4) engine and rotor parameters,

(5) parameters arranged in logical groupings to facilitate ease of evaluation, and

e. have the function and control to erase and de-clutter tracks from the display;
