Lockheed Martin Corporation has delivered the Israeli Air Force (IAF) F-16I Flight and System Trainer (FST) that will be used to support a variety of training requirements for the IAF F-16I “Soufa” fighter and ground attack aircraft. Delivery of the simulator is part of a contract originally awarded in January 2006 that calls for Lockheed Martin Simulation, Training & Support (STS) to provide emergency procedures, aircraft systems operation, and tactical and weapon systems crew training.

Lockheed Martin provides the hardware and software to simulate F-16I aircraft systems, sensors, weapons and flight dynamics. The training system foundation is built from Lockheed Martin’s NxSys pre-integrated suite of simulation products. That suite includes the Instructor Operator Station (NxIOS), Flight Debrief Station for After Action Review (NxAAR), Tactical Environment Simulation (NxTES), Digital Radar Landmass Simulation (NxDRLMS) Air-to-Ground and Terrain Following (TF) radar, and NxView Sensor Image Generator Software for Low Altitude Navigation and Targeting Infrared for Night (LANTIRN(TM)) forward-looking mid-wave infrared (FLIR).
