This paper presents a prototype methodology conceived by the United States Air Force to establish a baseline approach in the development of a new human factors crew station design methodology for emerging weapon systems. The goal of the project is to develop a structured human factors design methodology that can be used by designers to assess emerging technologies and relate them to system requirements and human performance characteristics so that the features of the resulting designs satisfy specific operational mission objectives.
