The US Air Force recently issued a Request for Proposals to industry for the design, development and test of a Digital Radar Landmass Simulator (DRLMS) system. Planned for use with the F-16 operational flight trainer, the DRLMS is intended to provide air-to-ground training to F-16 pilots from the air forces of the US, Belgium, Denmark, the Netherlands, Norway and other countries. Data bases provided by the US Army's Defense Mapping Agency will be used to produce real-world simulation for the first time. 1, record 5, English, - digital%20radar%20landmass%20simulator
