Three companies with military training expertise are working together to combine their technology and experience, which they believe will revolutionise training for the military forces of the future.
Using Red 6’s patented technology, pilots will be able to see and interact with virtual aircraft, targets and threats on the ground and in the air, while also experiencing the cognitive loads of physically flying the airplane.
This early engineering solution provides Lockheed Martin and Red 6 additional experience in integrating simulations which could eventually comprise embedded training for the T-50 program.
MS&T’s Andy Fawkes and Dim Jones had the opportunity to chat with Daniel Robinson, Co-Founder and CEO of augmented-reality company Red 6, a former RAF Tornado F3 pilot and the first non-US pilot to fly the Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor operationally.
Lockheed Martin, Korea Aerospace Industries and Red 6 Aerospace have established a new partnership that will deliver advanced 21st Century Security capabilities across a spectrum of training and combat aircraft.
BAE Systems will collaborate with Red 6 to explore the integration of the Advanced Tactical Augmented Reality Systems (ATARS) onto the Hawk fast jet trainer aircraft. This will enable pilots to identify, engage and defeat virtual threats and cooperate with virtual wingmen.
Red 6 and Boeing have announced plans to integrate Red 6’s Advanced Tactical Augmented Reality System and Augmented Reality Command and Analytic Data Environment into Boeing-manufactured next-gen aircraft.
