T-pod

[jason_peters]

What screen will the t-pod be available on (DDis or the colour screen or any)

 

Any thoughts on when likely to be available - are we talking 6months away or a bit sooner? Interested to know where it is in the development list

Can't comment on how long it'll until it's there. As for the display, you can have it on both DDIs and probably the MPCD too, although I only recently found out the MPCD can actually show all the DDI pages. I'd previously thought it only shows SA and HSI, so I'm not sure.

I'd say right DDI for sure, since lots of videos we find are recording TGP/Sniper Pods on right DDI, i wouldn't want it on left DDI with Cautions Warning appears on the Bottom of the DDI screen and altering what i am looking for as i slew around the Pod, as for MPCD even if you can, i wouldn't ever use it on the MPCD, i wouldn't find practicle and safe to look down at the bowel of the Hornet to find targets at least on DDI's you can move the eyes around and still see what's going on outside the cockpit, and most, to press the OSB'S the pilot would have to bend over or move around his head to look around the flightstick.

 

 

As for the release time, i'D say, not fast enough :) But we are all waiting for it.

you can use it on all three mfd's....is up to the pilot's preference

all displas should be able to do it.

 

LEft or right DDI require less heads down work but perhaps i think the AMPCD will be the preferred display due due to colour capability. the TGP would look black and whilte CCTV style images like in the A10C, but in the DDI's they are going to be green because of the older display technology.
