Prototype Aviation Combat Crew Trainer (PACCT)

Pathfinder Systems, Inc. will research, develop and demonstrate a Prototype Aviation Combat Crew Trainer (PACCT). The design of PACCT will focus on providing an aircrew trainer for the H-60 class of aircraft, especially the Army's UH-60 helicopters. The design will be applicable to the Navy's MH-60S helicopters as well. This prototype will demonstrate selected aircrew training tasks specified for the Army’s Combat Crew Trainer System Requirements Document. Its design will be deployable, compatible with transportation in 20-ft ISO containers, and the training device will fit into an expandable shelter. The PACCT design will include technology that is transferable to other aircraft, especially to the CH-47 helicopter, but also including aircraft used by Marine Corps medium and heavy lift squadrons, that is the MV-22, CH-46E and CH-53E.
