Introduction
The FWS-18 medium/short-range fixed-wing UAV simulation training system consists of a visual subsystem, a track planning subsystem, and an integrated control subsystem. It complies with the AATD and FTDLevel 4 fixed-wing flight simulator standards. The system can be used for the training of military fixed-wing UAV pilots and multi-aircraft formation combat simulation. The visual subsystem is based on the UE4 engine, which truly restores the battlefield environment and fixed-wing flight posture; the track planning subsystem provides map navigation and track point planning functions, supports multi-scene switching and combat mission settings; the integrated control subsystem combines professional military-grade hardware, highly simulated operation feel, and realizes complex tactical mission simulation.
Technical features
Tactical flight training
FWS-18 is equipped with AoriflightSim flight simulation engine to build a highly realistic fixed-wing UAV simulated flight environment. Based on the semi-physical simulation framework, it accurately restores the flight characteristics of UAVs, supports weapon mounting simulation, battlefield target reconnaissance, and tactical flight training. Using UE4 animation rendering technology, it displays enemy targets, ground units and air threats, providing a panoramic training and combat experience.
Highly integrated design
The system is highly scalable, and users can use three or more monitors to get a better visual experience. At the same time, the system integrates the fixed-wing UAV’s visual system, ground station control system, and operating system into an all-in-one machine, which can help students quickly understand and master fixed-wing UAV operating skills.
Application scenarios and functions
Basic Environment
The system can simulate real weather conditions, such as wind, rain, snow, etc., and supports the setting of wind speed, wind direction, light and other weather conditions, providing an operating experience that is infinitely close to the real environment, training and strengthening the flying skills of fixed-wing UAV pilots, and avoiding accidental losses during normal flight.
Model Configuration
The system can freely select a variety of fixed-wing UAV training, including vertical take-off fixed-wing, fixed-wing (upper wing, mid-wing, lower wing), etc. Users can conduct targeted training as needed; the system restores the real state of fixed-wing UAVs in actual flight missions, and provides operations such as route drawing, take-off inspection, waypoint attribute setting, pod control and other processes for each model, highly restoring the real mission status.
Free perspective
The system makes all mission scenes into 3D real-life effects with stunning visual effects, and can provide third-person perspective, follow-up perspective, pod perspective, etc., allowing students to have a deeper understanding of the UAV’s flight posture and other conditions, meeting daily real-life training needs.
Route planning
The system provides map navigation and track point planning functions, can freely switch mission scenes and plan the mission route in the current scene, simulate real mission scenarios, and meet the full-process simulation training needs of various industries such as fixed-wing UAV reconnaissance, mapping, geological exploration, and emergency inspection.
Flight monitoring
The system can provide a UAV monitoring module to dynamically monitor the flight attitude, power status, link status and flight information of the UAV during the mission in real time; it can provide a human-computer interaction interface and monitoring display interface consistent with the actual aircraft model, restoring the most realistic fixed-wing UAV control and monitoring process.
Supporting teaching aids
The system can provide fixed-wing UAV teaching aids that are scaled down to the real aircraft. The teaching aids have real flight control integrated into them, and are linked with the fixed-wing simulation system through the Mavlink protocol to restore the takeoff self-check process and simulate the flight control effect.
High scalability
The system is highly scalable and can be customized for specific mission scenarios, aircraft models, and business processes based on this system. It can simulate the actual ground station, flight monitoring, cockpit and other physical facilities of the specified aircraft model to restore the real control experience (it can also be expanded to simulation functions related to fixed-wing manned aircraft).
Backstage
Achieve one-click management of students’ practice and test scores, and effectively monitor the progress and results of training.
