New and existing AWARE systems at the Paris Air Show include the multifunction Center Display Unit (CDU) for F-16 aircraft. Raytheon's CDU is certified by the U.S. Air Force as the F-16's Primary Flight Reference. The Helmet Mounted Integrated Targeting system is also being shown with the CDU demonstration.
Being demonstrated as well is the new Joint Tactical Air Controller system prototype for dismounted soldiers and the highly successful soldier-worn Aviation Warrior system with eye-level monocle display and 3D Audio.
"With our AWARE product line, our customers are able to cost effectively upgrade and significantly increase the situational awareness capabilities of their existing platforms," said John D. Harris, Raytheon Company vice president and general manager of the company's Intelligence, Information and Services business.
"With the global reach of the Paris Air Show," he added, "we are also demonstrating the AWARE family of innovative ruggedized computer display systems for ground vehicles, which keep ground and airborne warfighters connected."
