Helicopter Combat Manoeuvring Instrumentation (HCMI) System PDF Print E-mail

Prescient develops and designs the Helicopter Combat Manoeuvring Instrumentation (HCMI) System along the same technology application as that of the Air Combat Manoeuvring Instrumentation System. This new generation of instrumentation training system uses a network of standard aircraft data links, shared amongst all participants in an exercise, allows for a real-time seamless aerial combat training. 

An exact replica of common missiles type, our HCMI pod is fitted with a data-link transceiver, a global positioning system receiver, data processing computers, an inertial reference unit and a removable data storage cartridge. Our HCMI pod fits almost any modern helicopter, and can simulate threat signals, operations and tactics in flight. 

Based on real-time simulation technologies and data link network, the participants are able to share mission and tactical information during in-flight training. The data link technologies also allow for methodic reconstruction of the scenarios during after-action debrief or during on-the-fly.
