Top Level TNA: Conclusions ETTS and LVC Technologies: Are those the unique frontier toward new generation combat aircraft pilot training? ETTS and LVC are Mandatory technologies to fill the training gap toward new generation combat aircraft However, running in/out of the netcentric warfare environment reacting to threats, acting on sensors and weapons In time units, rates and g s too different from the one typical of New Generation Fighters, reduce or minimize ETTS and LVC Teaching Effectiveness To get maximum advantages from ETTS and LVC Technologies, they must be coupled with appropriated Airframe Agility 9
