CAE Australia has been awarded a contract by Australia’s Capability Acquisition and Sustainment Group to upgrade the Royal Australian Air Force’s (RAAF) three Hawk Mk127 full-mission simulators with the Crew Training System developed by Seeing Machines.
CAE Australia and Seeing Machines will collaborate to install and integrate the Crew Training System that features precision eye-tracking technology on the CAE-built Hawk Mk127 full-mission simulators used as part of the RAAF’s lead-in fighter training program. The eye-tracking technology improves aircrew training by providing objective insights and detailed data on where pilots are looking during training scenarios in the simulator.
CAE Australia, Seeing Machines and the RAAF proved the effectiveness of the eye-tracking capabilities over the past year during a research and development program where the Crew Training System was installed on one of the Hawk Mk127 full-mission simulators for 78 Wing at RAAF Williamtown.
CAE Australia will have overall responsibility for upgrading two Hawk Mk127 full-mission simulators at RAAF Williamtown as well as one Hawk Mk127 full-mission simulator at RAAF Pearce. CAE Australia currently provides comprehensive training support services to the RAAF on the Hawk Mk127 lead-in fighter training program, including the provision of classroom and simulator instructors.
