T-40 NEWEN

The T-40 NEWEN is the advanced evolution of the successful T-35 PILLAN aircraft, now converted into a flight instruction system that includes, in addition to the production of a new aircraft, important state-of-the-art peripheral subsystems.

A NEW CONCEPT IN FLIGHT INSTRUCTION

Today, the needs of air training demand that new crews be instructed and trained with the integrated systems they will encounter in the future of their careers, around a state-of-the-art aircraft. 

The T-40 NEWEN reflects the evolution of the original T-35 PILLAN, with an aircraft updated in all relevant aspects, such as avionics, extensive use of carbon fiber, new wing design, removable winglets, new engine and improved power/weight ratio, while maintaining the renowned reliability and low operating cost. 

Furthermore, following the concept of a Comprehensive Primary Instruction System, the T-40 NEWEN includes Systems for Flight Planning, Monitoring and Evaluation, and Ground Training of Pilots and Technicians supported by Augmented Reality. 

THE PROJECT PREMISE

AN INTEGRATED
SYSTEM

The T-40 NEWEN is the central element of an integrated low-cost training system, which will bring the student pilot closer early to technologies and procedures similar to those of 4th and 5th generation aircraft.

The integrated training system is based on a concept of logical progression of the student pilot, so that he or she becomes familiar from the first stage of training with the philosophy and environment of more sophisticated systems that he or she will encounter later during his or her pilot career.

T-40 NEWEN PERIPHERAL SUBSYSTEMS

Flight Simulator – SIM: This subsystem, in an immersive environment, will provide the user with a flight experience close to reality. It will allow for the instruction of procedures, lesson training and simulation of planned missions. The SIM is made up of a Flight Deck, an Instructor Station and a Mixed Reality Visual System, and has the capacity to communicate with the Mission Planning Subsystem (MPS) and the Debriefing Subsystem (DBS) to plan and analyze missions respectively.

Mission Planning – MPS: The MPS is a multi-platform computing tool, based on the “Luciad” geospatial engine, which will allow the generation of flight plans and the input of the flight plan to the aircraft's avionics.

Mission Debriefing – DBS: The DBS will synchronously reproduce flight parameters, audio and video from the HUD, for the purpose of performing post-flight analysis of each training mission, simultaneously presenting the 2D/3D flight, the HUD video and the data.

Flight Tracking – TRK: The TRK consists of a set of software and hardware tools that allow monitoring, from a ground station, the position of aircraft that are carrying out training flights anywhere in the national territory.

Instruction for Operators and Maintainers – SOM: The SOM corresponds to a CBT (Computer Based Training) type system, composed of hardware, software and methodologies that will allow the training, capacity building and instruction of operators and maintainers to be carried out.

Technical Order Management (SOT): The SOT allows for document management, to track, store, archive and organize electronic documents or images of paper documents. It will have the ability to keep a record of the different versions and modifications of the documents that are entered into the system.

The T-40 NEWEN, manufactured by ENAER, is heir to the values ​​of the classic T-35 PILLAN, a training aircraft that has served air forces with singular effectiveness, fulfilling all the original premises, always up to date with the latest technology reflected in its constant updates, with more than 30 years of service training thousands of pilots in 8 countries in America and Europe, delivering more than 300,000 hours of instruction.
