The Purpose of this admendment is to extend the White Paper due date to November 15, 2021 @ 12:00 PM PST. The 412th EWG/EWJ has a requirement for F-35 High-Fidelity Crew Stations (HFCS) to operate as the System Under Test (SUT) platform in support of Developmental Test (DT) and Operational Test (OT) missions flown in the Joint Simulation Environment (JSE). In addition, the F-35 HFCS will support High End Advanced Training and Tactics (HEAT2) simulator missions. For the purposes of this document, a HFCS is defined as the high-fidelity F-35 cockpit, with offeror-furnished Panoramic Cockpit Display and Standby Flight Display (SFD), Government Furnished Equipment (GFE) Hands-On-Throttle and Stick (HOTAS), GFE rudder pedals, GFE high fidelity F-35 cockpit seat, GFE visual display system (VDS), GFE image generation (IG) system, and GFE F-35 helmet and helmet-mounted display (HMD). The HFCS vendor will act as integrator for the HFCS and cockpit displays, HOTAS, rudder pedals, cockpit seat, and HMD. The Air Force is seeking innovative solutions with regards to the fidelity of the proposed crew station, ability to transport / reposition within the workspace, and ingress/egress of cockpit by the operator while considering the stated boundaries (i.e., F-35 Cockpit and ergonomics, GFE compatibility, etc.) within this Call. The solution offered will need to consider the human factor relationship or the physical relationship of the primary components of the simulator. The important aspects to retain are the physical relationships of the controls, displays, seat, and the pilot’s eye point (PEP). See attached Call for more information.
