Technological development in areas related to propulsion systems has allowed to get smaller engines

The cabin is the environment within which the pilot performs different actions on the aircraft images of rockets systems to achieve their goals. Hence the importance from the standpoint of ease of doing such actions images of rockets (determining the workload) and the ability to maintain knowledge of everything that happens images of rockets both inside and outside the aircraft (situational awareness) . As these considerations fully evident images of rockets today were not so in the past. In fact, until recently these aspects, which today are treated images of rockets scientifically through a new specialty human factors are not taken into account. In the case of the French aircraft can be seen the almost total absence of concepts such as cabin ergonomics and integration of man in the machine. The cabin is reduced, resulting in close to the crew member (regardless of size) and limited in availability of space to locate the various instruments and control boxes, which results in a distribution of these a little bit illogical and operational ( in fact this is a restriction when trying to improve images of rockets systems). Outward visibility, a fundamental requirement images of rockets in a plane air superiority, is not too good, a fact which is reflected in nearby fighting. On integrating the pilot on the plane, be considered two distinct areas for improvement. First presentation of information, both referring to navigation parameters as tactical, was not clear and may lead in some limit to errors in the analysis of the situation situations. Regarding the control of different systems, and the lack of an ergonomic study in cab design, the need to act on some of them (radar images of rockets parameter change for example) in a combat situation, forcing images of rockets the pilot to drop his hands as key controls images of rockets as the gear motor condition that today would be unacceptable. However these aspects have been thoroughly treated in both the F-18 and Eurofighter. On the one hand almost all American aircraft has enjoyed a really spacious and comfortable cabin, reaching cases, such as the F-15, where the empty space is larger than that occupied by the systems. In the Eurofighter, the applied solution is perfectly suited to the needs. To this we must add the application of the concept of "glass cockpit" on both planes, images of rockets through which the information images of rockets is presented in a clear and distinct manner, allowing for quick and easy interpretation of the situation. Apart is the chapter on the introduction of the concept HOTAS (Hands On Throttle And Stick, images of rockets hands in motor control and joystick) in the performance of the pilot on the aircraft systems. In this way it is possible to select each and every one of the functions considered necessary during critical phases without releasing the basic controls for managing the aircraft, the joystick and lever engine. In the case of the Eurofighter, significantly improving the level of integration using a newly developed system called DVI (direct voice control, as the acronym) as well as one of the most complex systems currently under development, the HMD. In short, it has achieved an aircraft designed by pilots for pilots, resulting in a comfortable cabin, which generates a reduced workload and increased levels of safety and efficacy. Performances
Technological development in areas related to propulsion systems has allowed to get smaller engines in size, lighter in weight and a significantly higher thrust. We can go to the comparison between the single Atar 9C engine of Mirage IIIE providing images of rockets a thrust images of rockets of 6,400 kg with afterburning and the two EJ200 Eurofighter, which provide around 9,000 kg per unit under the same conditions, to see clearly this development. This, translated the concept of thrust / weight, is an evolution from 0.7 at the Mirage IIIE, 0.8 in F.1, about 1 in F-18 and the Eurofighter 1.2 . The reflection of this difference in engine performance is manifested in different factors: acceleration capacity (distances required for takeoff, time to reach a height and a certain speed), external load transported (flexibility to use different configurations), leeway (ability to maintain a constant load factor), and so on. The difference in performance between the four planes is really impressive especially when face them in a close combat or supersonic interceptions. Moreover considering, on behalf of Eurofighter, its ability to reach 9 g while
