About this file

This document is a Salient Characteristics specification for an F-18 Egress Trainer from the Department of the Air Force, Headquarters 36th Wing at Andersen Air Force Base in Guam. The specification details precise requirements for a standalone training unit that closely mimics an actual F-18 aircraft, including a single-pilot cockpit with an opening canopy, authentic F-18 restraints, throttles, and switches, and precise dimensional requirements.

Key technical specifications include a stainless steel fuselage, simulated F-18 engines, wing-mounted ordnance replicas (AIM-9 Sidewinder and MK-82 Bomb), folding wings for transportation, three-wheel landing gear configuration, built-in lifting lugs, and dedicated liquid oxygen and battery compartments. The trainer is designed to provide a realistic egress training environment that accurately represents the physical characteristics and equipment of an operational F-18 aircraft.
