Inikwa amandla ukwakheka kwesistimu evulekile, i-AAMS ivumela ukuhlanganiswa okusheshayo kwezinzwa nemisebenzi ikhasimende elifisa ukuyisebenzisela ukuthuthukisa ukulungela ukulwa komoya. Isibonelo, namuhla uhlelo lufakwe:
• I-radar yomoya eya emoyeni i-Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA);
• Uhlelo Lokugxumeka Olubekwe Ngomakalabha (HMCS);
• Ukuxhumana kwedatha okuhlakaniphile phakathi kwezindiza nezinye izinhlangano;
• Amasistimu okusesha nokulandela ngomkhondo (IRST);
• I-High Fidelity Weapon Simulation evumela ukuphindaphinda okunembile kwamaqhinga ezitha;
• Ukuqashwa okuthuthukisiwe kwe-Electronic Attack kanye namakhono okuthola i-RF angenzi lutho; futhi
• Uxhaxha lwemisebenzi yamaqhinga exhumanisa lezi zinhlelo ezingenhla ukuze inikeze uchungechunge lwemiphumela engokoqobo ephikisanayo.
I-AAMS imele iminyaka emine yocwaningo nokuthuthukiswa komsebenzi wonjiniyela be-Top Aces nozakwethu wezobuchwepheshe i-Coherent Technical Services, Inc. (CTSi) yase-Lexington Park, MD. Ngonyaka odlule, i-AAMS yagunyazwa ukuthi isetshenziswe ezikhungweni zemikhumbi ye-Top Aces ye-A-4N Skyhawks futhi njengamanje isebenzela Umbutho Wezempi waseJalimane namanye amakhasimende ase-Europe ukuze uthole ukuqeqeshwa okuthuthukisiwe emoyeni. Manje lolu hlelo olufanayo lwemishini ehlanganisiwe selufakiwe endizeni ye-Top Aces' F-16A yi-M7 Aerospace yase-San Antonio, TX, inkampani ye-Elbit Systems of America enolwazi ekulungisweni kwezindiza, Ukulungisa kanye Nokulungiswa kabusha (MRO).
I-Top Aces ihlela ukuthuthukisa iningi lemikhumbi yayo ye-F-16 ngobuchwepheshe obusha be-AAMS phakathi nonyaka olandelayo.
"Uma uhlanganisa amandla nama-avionics e-F-16 ne-AAMS, ihlinzeka ngesixazululo esingokoqobo nesingabizi kakhulu sokuqeqeshwa esitholakala kubashayeli bezindiza abahamba ngezindiza zesizukulwane sesihlanu, njenge-F-22 noma i-F-35", kusho. U-Russ Quinn, uMongameli, i-Top Aces Corp., umakadebona we-USAF weminyaka engu-26 kanye nomshayeli wendiza owayeyi-Aggressor onamahora endiza angaphezu kuka-3,300 F-16.
“Ngenxa ye-plug-and-play ye-AAMS yethu, iphinde ivumele ukwengezwa kwezinzwa ezintsha nezisafufusa esikhathini esizayo, okunikeza ukuguquguquka kokuthuthukisa ama-F-16 ethu nokuhlangabezana nezidingo ze-Air Force iminyaka. ukuza,” kunezela uMnu. Quinn.
LOKHO ONGAKUTHATHE KULESI SIHLOKO:
- “Due to the plug-and-play nature of our AAMS, it also allows for the addition of new and emerging sensors well into the future, which provides the flexibility to upgrade our F-16s and meet the needs of the Air Force for years to come,”.
- “When you combine the power and avionics of the F-16 with the AAMS, it provides the most realistic and cost-effective training solution available to pilots flying fifth-generation fighters, such as the F-22 or F-35”, says Russ Quinn, President, Top Aces Corp.
- Powered by an open system architecture, AAMS permits the rapid integration of sensors and functions that a customer wishes to use to improve their air combat readiness.
