Northrop Grumman says it led a contractor team to design and integrate a one-of-a-kind laser positioning system in a Boeing 737 flight simulator to study aircrew exposure to lasers. Northrop worked with the Air Force and FAA to create this means to monitor pilots’ reaction to an “eye-safe laser” that will be used to develop new flight safety measures to counter the threat of laser blinding.
The official charity for the Air Force and Space Force is implementing major changes to help Airmen, Guardians, and their families with child care, health care, permanent change-of-station (PCS) moves, and other stressful or expensive life needs.
