Innovative, Rugged, and Fully Configurable Avionics Displays for Military Applications
Innovative Aerosystems (IA) Flat Panel Display Systems (FPDS) deliver high-contrast, full-color LCD cockpit displays purpose-built for turbine-class business jets and turboprops. Designed to meet the rigorous reliability standards expected in modern cockpits, these systems are certified to the highest Design Assurance Levels, ensuring both hardware and software integrity for safety-critical operations. The FPDS architecture is field-proven with high mean time between failures (MTBF), minimizing downtime and lifecycle costs. Fully configurable, the displays support Primary Flight Display (PFD), Navigation Display (ND), Multi-Function/Mission Display (MFD), and Engine Instrument Display System (EIDS) functions for both OEM installations and retrofit upgrades.
Innovative Aerosystems (IA) Flat Panel Display Systems (FPDS) are engineered for turbine-class military aircraft—both fixed-wing and rotary-wing platforms. These high-contrast, full-color LCD displays are fully configurable to support Primary Flight Display (PFD), Navigation Display (ND), Multi-Function/Mission Display (MFD), and Engine Instrument Display System (EIDS) functions for OEM and retrofit upgrades.
Advanced Avionics Technology
Each Display Unit (DU) integrates a built-in Symbol Generator (SG) into a rugged, compact form factor, minimizing wiring compared to legacy systems. Powered by a high-end 3D graphics rendering engine with fully anti-aliased graphics, each display features quadruply redundant LED backlighting for exceptional brightness and reliability with no loss of intensity over its service life. Proprietary anti-reflective, non-glare surface treatments ensure sunlight readability in all environments.
With industry-standard I/O, IA FPDS seamlessly interfaces with a wide range of Data Concentrator Units and Display Control Units, offering unmatched integration flexibility.
Rugged, Versatile & Mission-Ready
Available in Portrait or Landscape formats and four display sizes—10.4-inch, 15.6-inch, 17-inch, and 20-inch—the FPDS can be configured to meet any mission profile.
- 10.4″ PFD – XGA multi-color LCD with ±80° viewing angle, NVIS-compliant lighting, and non-glare coating; available in PFD and ND/MFD formats for both OEM and retrofit installations.
- 10.4″ MFD – Designed as a tactical display with optional touchscreen interface, exceptional image clarity, and luminance.
- 15.6″ MFD – Tactical mission display with touchscreen control for enhanced operator interactivity.
- 20″ MFD – Lightweight, shallow-depth, sunlight-readable tactical display with natural convective cooling, optional glove-compatible touchscreen, and rapid display format modification capability. Optional symbol generator available.
Engine Instrument Display System (EIDS) Upgrade
The IA EIDS offers a cost-effective, value-added retrofit for engine instrument clusters. Compatible with existing cockpit layouts, it displays all engine parameters and surface position indicators with intuitive full-color graphics and exceedance alerting.
Customizable & Future-Proof Avionics
IA displays support rapid graphic format modifications and fast-track certification with the FAA or other authorities through a patented integrity monitoring system. Flexible graphic symbology ensures adaptability for future mission requirements.
Familiar, Operator-Friendly Display Formats
Minimal training is required for pilots and operators thanks to instant recognition layouts and point-and-select data entry.
