Abstract

This paper aims at describing how to design for human factors in the technology-intensive domain of fighter aircraft. Similar to space industry, the fighter aircraft industry has to manage technology-intensive development where the end user often has implicit or explicit human factors requirements or expectations that has to be managed though design. This paper describes the specifics of the domain of fighter aircraft development with examples of what is special and design concepts to handle it. Specifically useful human factors' considerations are highlighted and recommended approaches for managing human factors in development of fighter aircraft are described.
