The MFD10-121-001 is a simulated version of the 6 X 6 inch Multi-Function Display as used in the F-15 aircraft. It is intended for training and simulation purposes only.
The front appearance is a high fidelity duplicate of the original flight instrument, including the fully functional switch bezel and the AMLCD display. The AMLCD back-light and the bezel illumination meet NVIS requirements as specified in MIL-STD-3009.
The high resolution (768 by 768pixel) AMLCD is custom manufactured by resizing a commercial AMLCD panel from a 4 X 3 aspect ratio to a square format. The unit is ruggedly built to take the most demanding simulation environments. It is one of a wide family of cockpit simulation products and manufactured by Panel products Inc.
