AIRFORCE PROJECT PISCES SOFTWARE
One app, the Battlefield Management Portal, was developed by a team from the 309th Software Maintenance Group out of Hill AFB, Utah, and presents surface-to-air threat information in a new format designed to maximize pilot effectiveness in the suppression of air defenses mission of the F-35. Two apps were tested to demonstrate the idea. With the ground test, the Project FoX test team proved they could successfully take data output from a flight test instrumentation system and convert the F-35’s data to communicate with mobile applications running on a commercial tablet. He’s also the F-35 command chief instructor test pilot with the 461st FLTS, an active-duty unit at Edwards AFB, and one of the main players within Project FoX. LeClair is a test flight commander stationed at Edwards AFB, California, with the 370th Flight Test Squadron, a unit assigned to the Air Force Reserve Command's 413th Flight Test Group. We are trying to find ways to go faster for less money, to bring more capability per dollar, and to push more capabilities to the warfighter more quickly … We want to shift timelines from capabilities being fielded in years to being fielded in a matter of months or weeks both hardware and software.” “In order to stay competitive, we have to innovate,” said Lt. The event was a milestone for the Fighter Optimization eXperiment, or FoX, a project that seeks to rapidly integrate advanced software and hardware technologies to maximize the F-35’s lethality and survivability, while creating an agile development test tool and fielded combat multiplier for all Defense Department aircraft. For the first time ever, Air Force personnel livestreamed F-35 Lightning II data directly from the aircraft’s mission systems computers to a connected computer tablet during a recent ground test at Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada.
