The Ukrainian Air Force is using iPads, or similar tablets in the cockpits of its Soviet-era jets to enable rapid integration of modern Western air-to-ground weapons.
#Ukraine #War #Weapons

This has been confirmed by Undersecretary of Defence for Acquisition and Sustainment Dr. William LaPlante.

While many questions remain about the tablet and how it exactly works, there’s now footage showing it fitted in cockpits during combat (or at least live-fire training) missions.

They custom built a latching system to latch western missiles onto Soviet era planes and they control it using a amplified Bluetooth connection with an iPad.

Commercial tech has had exponentially more R&D funding, development and testing. So, this is zero surprise.

The fact that Ukraine even has an Air Force at all attests to their ingenuity and their fighting spirit.

For anyone wondering, in the footage, it looks like they’re using Foreflight, an IPad App mainly used by almost every pilot for flight planning and navigation. In General Aviation in USA, almost every pilot I know uses Foreflight (or Garmin for android. They both function practically the same), and I believe it would be the same outside of the US. In terms of aviation as a whole, this is still relatively new tech but that’s because all of aviation is just so old school that it took years for the FAA to recognize the normal usage of IPads in the cockpit. I don’t know how they’re using it to control their weapon systems, but this isn’t a new or uncommon thing. It also isn’t “old school” or making use of resources, they’re just doing something the rest of the world already has been doing. What’s weird is that they’re using it for fighter aircraft but I’m not a fighter pilot so idk. A reason I can think of is that using an iPad is better and more cost effective than installing GPS into these fighters.

Lots of civilians with old planes wanting a cheaper alternative to glass cockpit conversions put on IPads all the time.
