Abstract

While the HOBSis a multi-platform system, the scope of this thesis will only encompass its integration on the USN F/A-18. While a broad overview of the HOBS is presented, a more detailed description of the system is outlined to support the human factors evaluation of the JHMCS as a controller for cueing the F/A-18 Helmet Acquisition (HACQ) Radar mode and the Sidewinder missile during WVR, air-to-air combat.
