F-16 pilot with Joint Helmet Mounted Cueing System and cockpit head-up display. The F-16 has a head-up display (HUD), which projects visual flight and combat information in front of the pilot without obstructing the view; being able to keep their head "out of the cockpit" improves the pilot's situation awareness.

The F-21 combines the F-16 Block 70/72 configuration with a single-panel cockpit, avionics resembling the F-35's integrated cockpit display, AN/APG-83 AESA radar, a triple-rail AIM-120 launcher, and integrated probe-and-drogue conformal fuel tanks from the former F-16IN.
The third common genre for a simpit is the military pit. Like commercial pits, these sims are typically designed more for entertainment than training. Military-based pits are commonly based on a single aircraft, often the F-16, due to the availability of highly realistic simulation software (Falcon 4.0) of this aircraft.
Combat flight simulators are vehicle simulation games, amateur flight simulation computer programs used to simulate military aircraft and their operations. These are distinct from dedicated flight simulators used for professional pilot and military flight training which consist of realistic physical recreations of the actual aircraft cockpit, often with a full-motion platform.
The clean white cockpit design would be replaced with a heavy, dark, rectangular design that featured individual cockpit art on each cockpit. Internally, System 2.5 would be nearly identical to System 2, but would feature a revised sound card solution where a separate sound/amp board would be utilized for the first time.
F-16 Combat Pilot, although a good simulator, did not receive much popularity as the DOS version was released a year later than Spectrum Holobyte's Falcon, which was more popular and had much more advanced graphics and audio for its time, and by 1991, the popular Falcon 3.0 was released.
Ukraine said Thursday that one of its F-16 fighter jets made by the United States crashed while repelling a Russian air strike, killing the pilot onboard. A U.S. official confirmed to CBS News the ...
Motion system is a major contributor to overall simulator cost, [22]: 423 but assessments of skill transfer based on training on a simulator and leading to handling an actual aircraft are difficult to make, particularly where motion cues are concerned. Large samples of pilot opinion are required and many subjective opinions tend to be aired ...
