The McDonnell Aircraft Company's Manned Air Combat Simulator is being used in the early design and evaluation phases of an advanced real-time reconnaissance aircraft. The cockpit arrangement and control logic have been implemented in the engineering development simulator. To date there have been two formal human factors evaluations of the system under simulated operational conditions. This presentation outlines the procedures used, the results, and their impact upon the design.
