AH-64 Apache
The Block II Lot 10 AH-64D simulator system was built originally for the
U.S. Army Air Maneuver Battle Lab in Fort Rucker, Alabama. The simulator was developed using ZedaSoft's
CBA®
for Simulation framework, and includes the following capabilities:
- General execution framework for entity and virtual world model and GUI components
- Support for Distributed Interactive Simulation (DIS) protocol versions 4 and 6
- Generation of constructive threat and friendly entities
-
Mission Overview and Instructor/Experimenter Operation Station (I/EOS), which provides:
- A Common Operational Picture (COP)
- Color maps of the battle space
- Entity insertions (MANPAD, SAM, threat aircraft)
- Virtual cockpit repeater views
The AH-64D simulator includes the tactical mission equipment package software
needed to simulate the unclassified public release features of this platform,
including:
- NVG and IR visual scene channels for PNVS and TADS sensor simulation
- Plug-in overlays to properly portray symbology generated by the sensor system
-
An optional integrated Bihrle Applied Research
high-fidelity AH-64 flight model (requires Bihrle Dsix software licenses)
- Correlated radar simulation to support the Longbow radar and weapons integration
- Support for tactical simulation of the M230 30mm chain gun, Hydra 70 2.75" rockets and Hellfire missiles
