MultiGen-Paradigm, Inc., (MultiGen), a wholly owned subsidiary of Parallax Capital Partners, LLC providing real-time, 3D visual simulation solutions, and Concurrent, a provider of time-critical Linux operating systems and integrated computer solutions for mission-critical applications, has jointly announced that Lockheed Martin has selected their integrated 3D software and IG (image generator) solution for the U.S. Air Force Air Education and Training Command. The contract calls for providing hardware and software to support two refurbished F-16 flight cockpit simulators at the Networked Training Center (NTC) facility, Luke Air Force Base in Arizona USA.

Luke Air Force Base purchased the integrated MultiGen/Concurrent solution, which includes 14 channels for each cockpit with OTW (out the window) and sensor (night vision goggles, infrared) capability based on MultiGen’s software solutions. The chosen ImaGen visual server multi-channel configuration is powered by Concurrent’s RedHawk real-time Linux, compatible with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4. The first cockpit is to be ready in early 2007 and will require professional services efforts to upgrade Luke’s database plus integration efforts.
