A high acceleration cockpit design integration program was conducted for an advanced fighter concept with direct lift and direct side force capabilities. Program efforts included an assessment of basic pilot tasks in fighter mission, using the configuration direct force and high acceleration design features. Cockpit functional capabilities were tailored to satisfy operational needs, providing for normal flight and combat phases of the mission. Several configuration design alternatives were evaluated by USAF pilots in a static simulation cockpit evaluation phase. Resulting objective and subjective measures allowed ranking of configuration concepts. Several principal areas for future high acceleration cockpit development were defined. (Author)
