Bengaluru, September 3. Software Development Institute (SDI) of IAF located in Bengaluru was tasked to design, develop, integrate and deploy Super Dimona aircraft simulator for NDA. The requirement was projected by Air Force Training Team (AFTT) established at NDA and mandated to undertake flying training for cadets. The need was to familiarise the cadets with basic flying aspects so as to equip them with necessary knowledge of flying environment. The simulation software including flight dynamics was developed by software engineers of Air Force involving state of the art 135 degree FOV immersive display to enhance the visual experience of the cadet flying. Towards Aatmanirbharatha, local industries were involved in mechanical modification, fabrication of flight controls, display screens and other panels as available in actual aircraft.
Speaking on the occasion, Commandant SDI mentioned that this simulator will help to enhance the quality of training imparted to the cadets and guide them towards smooth transition for flying training.
