The 519SMXS team recently procured the Aechelon PCNova 8 IGSystem.The IGis used to create a virtual world generated from a terrain database for the F-16Block 30/50simulators to fly their missions in asimulated environment.The Aechelon IG system includesaRadar DataGenerator (RDG) server to provide a way for their partysoftware vendors writing SARground map displaysoftware to receive image data of thesurrounding area. Aechelon also provides an RDGsoftware development toolkit

(SDK) to third party vendors enabling them to writesoftware that can accessground map image data in real time from their IG.

The 519SMXS team inquired with Aechelon IntegrationEngineer, Mr.Joey Biggs. He confirmed that ComproRTKis the onlySAR ground map displaysoftware currently capable of interfacing with the Aechelon IGSystem recently procured by the HEDSteam.

Mr.Biggs indicated that JSM wascurrently in the processof integrating the AechelonRDGSDK but has not completed this effort.Per asolesource statement directly from Compro Computer Services, Inc. dated 2 November 2018,Compro is the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and is thesole provider of RTKproducts and maintenance support services.These itemsare not available from any other reseller.

During the Interservice/Industry Training,Simulation, and Education Conference (IITSEC) from 26-29November 2018, two software companies,JSN and Compro, were considered to be utilized within the Aechelon image generator. After confirmation from Mr.Joey Biggs, an Aechelon IntegrationEngineer, it was determined that ComproRTKis the only compatible software capable of interfacing with the Aechelon image generator already in use by the HEDS team.Searches on the General Services

Administration (GSA) and theEnterpriseSoftware Initiative (ESI) found that Compro does not haveany resellers, nor do theysell through third party distributors.Compro provided asolesource statement explaining that they are thesole provider of RTK products and maintenance support services.
