Abstract
Direct-view CRT and AMLCD multifunction displays (MFDs) in legacy aircraft are often upgraded for purposes of improved performance, reduced cost and/or avoidance of parts obsolescence. Rear projection technology is an attractive option in dealing with all these issues, as is discussed herein. Specifically, the design and features of a compact full-color rear projection MFD intended to replace a monochrome CRT-based system in a tactical military aircraft is described. Because of its small size and high performance, this system can be adapted for various other applications.
