Stottler Henke Associates will develop simulation software for the MH-60S Sierra and MH-60R Romeo Navy helicopters, under a new contract from the US Navy.

The software allows pilots and other crew members to learn helicopter cockpit operations without expensive simulators or helicopters.

Under the $9m contract, Stottler Henke will keep the software in sync with the helicopter and add new capabilities such as forward-looking infrared and a hand control unit.

Enhancements on the software include acoustics capabilities that enables sensor operators learn details and subtleties of acoustics operations, using real acoustic image displays.
