KAMAN AND LITTON HAVE shown the digital "glass-cockpit" configuration being proposed for the SH-2G(A) Super SeaSprite offered to the Royal Australian Navy (RAN). The Integrated Tactical Avionics System is built around a four-colour multi-function display cockpit architecture which can handle the electronic flight-instrumentation system, engine and transmission data, tactical plots and sensor imagery. The SH-2G(A) being offered to the RAN is fitted with the Telephonics APS-143 search radar, the Hughes AAQ-16 thermal imager, and the Litton ALR-93 electronic-warfare equipment. Kaman is competing with Westland for the order.
