Description
The requirement is for a 5 year maintenance and support Contract and is expected to commence on 01 April 2019, which will provide support to both systems at RAF Sultan and RAF Cosford. The support element is to apply to all hardware and software. Details of the requirements can be found below.
The Avionic System Trainer (AST) is a computer based training (CBT) system which is used by DSAE to provide Ph 3 avionics training to Trade Gp (TG) 1 Aircrew. In addition, the system is used to enable Petty Officer Air Engineer Technician (POAET) training on behalf of Fleet and International Defence Training (IDT). The AST is used to deliver some 42% of Avionics Technician training through an aircraft diagnostic simulation which allows instructors to compartmentalise avionics components for phased learning and simulate multiple aircraft avionics faults and enables students to fault diagnose with progressive complexity and autonomy. Physically, the system is hosted on desktop User Access Devices (UADs) linked to a master terminal which controls the software.
The Aircraft Propulsion Systems Trainer (APST) consists of a Generic Aircraft Model (GAM) and a CBT suite and is used to deliver procedural training on aircraft engine systems to Ph3 Aircraft Mechanical Technicians and their IDT counterparts. The APST CBT system comprises 4 gps of student UADs, each controlled by an instructor UAD, which together simulates an engine ground running team. Here the students learn basic aircraft propulsion techniques in a closely controlled environment and are exposed to role interaction and dependencies with simulated consequences. Following the initial CBT package students move onto the GAM, a Eurofighter Typhoon aircraft mock-up containing the operating system of a Rolls-Royce RB199 engine and functioning switches and gauges that simulate aircraft start-up, running and shut-down.
The exact specifications of the computer system will be confirmed at ITT stage, the Authority is currently exploring upgrades for the systems under the current Contractual arrangements.
