This diagram shows the $20 million simulators and training stations* where crews practice bringing the Allied fighter to life
33d Fighter Wing
*Simulators and Trainers:
Pilots:
Full Mission Simulator — creates the visual quality needed to simulate aerial refueling, emergency procedures, and landings.
Mission Rehearsal Trainer — a smaller-scale simulator that uses the same technology but without the full 360 degree dome display. A deployable version containing two cockpits can be shipped to other bases or carriers so pilots can stay on top of realistic training between missions.
Ground crew:
Aircraft Systems Maintenance Trainer — enables engineers to practice mission-critical or life-saving maintenance operations.
Ejection System Maintenance Trainer — allows technicians to train in the removal of the cockpit's canopy, as well as ejection seat procedures. Pilots depend on crew to help them out when things go wrong.
Weapons Loading Trainer — crew members practice the procedures for loading and unloading sophisticated missiles and bombs. The F-35 has internal and external weapon bays.
