RGB Spectrum has announced its integral role in the Modified Mission Rehearsal Trainer (MMRT) programme, Lockheed Martin’s latest innovation in F-35 pilot training. The programme is designed to expand 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.
RGB Spectrum says the MMRT, a smaller, more flexible training device, was recently connected to full mission simulators (FMS) for a cooperation test between the two systems. This exercise demonstrated enhanced tactical training capabilities and mission readiness, with the platform playing a critical 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 each phase of the training process across the FMS and MMRT platforms.
It is integrated across the MMRT’s core components: They are: 1. Pilot cockpits: In order to stream high-resolution visuals and data, including avionics and target acquisition systems. 2. Instructor stations: Enabling real-time monitoring and interaction during training sessions. 3. Debrief rooms: Providing advanced playback and analytical tools, such as frame-by-frame analysis and variable-speed playback for detailed performance assessments.
Bob Marcus, CEO of RGB Spectrum, said: “This programme 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. We are honoured to contribute to the success of the MMRT program and the readiness of F-35 pilots worldwide.”
RGB Spectrum will exhibit 2-6 December at I/ITSEC (Interservice/Industry Training, Simulation and Education Conference), the world’s largest modelling, simulation and training event, in Orlando, Florida. in booth #2112. They will showcase networking, recording, and display solutions for simulation and training.
The tech is designed to optimise and connect all simulator parts, including the instructor’s stations and the debrief room. The RGB Spectrum team will be present to discuss contributions to Lockheed Martin’s F-35 Full Mission Simulator.
