No i Disagree See almost all the new fighters have seperate FBW screen .... so in jf17 u have to change the channel suppose to see payload than u cant see FBW level ... Ok seriously That is really important in my opinion that JF17 should have a small on right mid before hud a screen for FBW!!
NO... The f-35 does not, the Gripen does not.. Its not a necessity.
Those fighters that do have separate Attitude indicator displays have smaller LCD's as well.
the JF-17's large LCD's have a lot of room to display multiple data.
The idea is to Reduce the pilots needs to look all over the place for situational data.. not have him bouncing his eyes around from screen to screen.
Just take a look at that picture.. to the left the pilot sees his flight data long with engine status.. that keeps him apprised of EVERYTHING he needs to know about his aircraft.
The center screen offers sensor data and merges them into a single display.. therefore everything he needs to know about his aircraft mission input and readiness is there.
The right one holds the moving map .. which also has threats and other important SA data superimposed on it. The pilot now knows what is going on in the fight.
The left and right displays can be swapped.. whichever the pilot is comfortable with.
This is the trend for future fighters.
Not increasing clutter.
