IS&S President Shahram Askarpour stated, "The IS&S system will
standardize the cockpits on the C-130 and L-100 aircraft making them
Communication, Navigation, Surveillance/Air Traffic Management (CNS/ATM)
compliant. The IS&S system is Night Vision Imaging System (NVIS)
compliant and enhances tactical and situational awareness. This program
will improve the reliability, maintainability and situational awareness
of the C-130 and L-100 aircraft."
A highlight of the system is the IS&S Flight Management System guided by
IS&S Beta 3 GPS receivers that provide RNP and LPV capabilities. "These
capabilities further demonstrate the robustness and versatility of the
IS&SFlight Management System and are unprecedented in this type of
aircraft," continued Askarpour.
The IS&S Integrated Multifunction Standby Unit (IMSU) processes and
displays altitude, attitude, airspeed, slip/skid and navigation
information in an intuitive and concise single instrument display. The
IMSU displays a Primary Flight Display (PFD) and a full 360� Horizontal
Situation Indicator (HSI) to reduce pilot workload and enhance
situational awareness.
Further, the system includes Primary, Navigation and Engine Instrument
Displays with associated Control Panels and Data Concentrators. The
Caution, Warning and Advisory Panel (CWAP) enables centralized
cautionary and warning indications in the flight deck and provides an
interface with the remote attention getters to enable flight crew alert
of annunciated cautions or warnings. CWAP also provides outputs to
activate warnings in the aircraft audio tone and voice alerting system.
Mr. Askarpour concluded, "This award by iAccess Technologies provides
another example of the growing use of IS&S products for military
applications. The IS&S Integrated Suite of Avionics provides exceptional
system integration, performance, low cost, light weight and low power
consumption, offering a great value."
