RGB Spectrum’s Zio platform powers Lockheed Martin’s MMRT

RGB Spectrum has announced its integral role in the Modified Mission Rehearsal Trainer (MMRT) program, Lockheed Martin’s F-35 pilot training.

This program expands wartime tactical training capabilities while reducing the physical footprint required for high-end simulation, helping to ensure pilots are prepared for the complexities of modern air combat.

Advancing F-35 Pilot Training

The MMRT, a smaller, more flexible training device, was recently connected to Full Mission Simulators (FMS) for a successful cooperation test between the two systems.

This exercise demonstrated enhanced tactical training capabilities and mission readiness, with RGB Spectrum’s Zio Video-over-IP platform playing a vital role in delivering high-quality video streaming, recording and playback.

From basic flying to multi-aircraft mission planning to after-action reviews, the Zio platform supports every phase of the training process across the FMS and MMRT platforms.

Core components

RGB Spectrum’s Zio Video-over-IP platform is seamlessly integrated across the MMRT’s core components:

• Pilot Cockpits: Streaming high-resolution visuals and data, including avionics and target acquisition systems
• Instructor Stations: Enabling real-time monitoring and interaction during training sessions
• Debrief Rooms: Providing advanced playback and analytical tools, such as frame-by-frame analysis and variable-speed playback for detailed performance assessments
• This networked video solution ensures the MMRT meets the high demands of F-35 pilot training, offering a scalable and efficient system to prepare pilots for critical missions

“Ahead of threats”

Bob Marcus, CEO of RGB Spectrum commented: “This program highlights our commitment to providing cutting-edge technology that ensures pilots remain ahead of threats and masters of their warfighting domain.

“The Zio platform’s advanced capabilities, including superior video fidelity, low latency, and intuitive control, set a new standard for mission-critical training environments.”

Marcus concluded: “We are honoured to contribute to the success of the MMRT program and the readiness of F-35 pilots worldwide.”
