To ensure effective flight training and reduce operating costs, the Air Defense-Air Force Academy has successfully developed a simulator cockpit for the Su-27 fighter jet.
 |
| According to leaked information, this device was created to promote the application of simulation technology in education and training, meeting the requirements for increased practical training, realistic training with new and modern equipment, and the need for a highly skilled technical staff for the armed forces as they strive for modernization.

 |
| Reportedly, this product consists of two main components: a simulator cabin and an instructor's desk. These components allow for: Simulation in the cockpit of electrical testing procedures for 36 practical training exercises across four aeronautical engineering specialties.

 |
| The system simulates interfaces on the teacher's desk to monitor student practice, automatically comparing incorrect movements and saving the results. |
 |
| It is possible to select specific malfunction scenarios to generate false malfunction signals in order to test the trainees' ability to handle malfunctions. |
 |
| Creating audio signals that mimic aircraft operation sounds and using open-source programming code allows for the modification of practice exercises. |
 |
| "Introducing the equipment into training is very cost-effective, as it is cheaper than imported equipment. The equipment helps enhance trainees' training, making it more realistic with weapons and equipment; improving the skills, mastery, and scientific research capabilities of officers..." |
 |
| "...The device can also be used to research and increase the number of electrical training exercises to hundreds by upgrading the number of RS232 communication ports and programming additional training exercises...", said Major General Tran Van Thanh, Director of the Air Defense - Air Force Academy. |
 |
| Along with researching and developing practical training equipment for the Su-27 aircraft, the academy also developed various simulation software and simulation devices to support training. |
 |
| The academy's radar simulators not only serve the students' learning needs but are also ordered by the Military Training Department (General Staff) for production and distribution to various units. |
 |
| Currently, the academy's scientific staff are focusing on the project "Air Defense and Air Force Division Exercise Command Center". Upon completion, it will ensure the effectiveness of experimental exercises and the combat performance of each operational plan. In the photo: A simulated cockpit of a Yak-52 aircraft. |
