Lockheed Martin and the UK Defence Evaluation and Research Agency are developing a Joint Maritime Simulation Facility. It will be used to define future requirements for maritime airborne platforms and assess the potential of systems of today. The Farnborough, Hampshire-based centre builds on Lockheed Martin's work as prime contractor for the Royal Navy's EH Industries Merlin HM1 helicopter and will use a range of simulation technologies to produce an evaluation device for use in aircrew trials.
