In order to meet the requirements of the NASA Langley Research Center for simulating the increased complexity and higher performance of modern aircraft, a flight simulation computing system with very high scalar performance is needed. The requirements and proposed response, probable areas of difficulty, planned implementation, and current status and plans are reviewed. A solution utilizing centralized minisupercomputers coupled with a proven real-time network technology will provide engineers and research scientists with the tools required for high-performance flight simulation. Subsequent to testing and verification of the initial simulation, general-purpose configuration management software with a nonconfiguration dependent serial highway driver software will be integrated to support any arbitrary combination of simulation sites.
