Boeing also studied cockpit concepts for the Advanced Tactical Fighter (ATF) program.The Virtual Situation Display developed by Boeing shows major topographical features ahead of an aircraft. Red and yellow beams show the severity of threats from ground-based missiles and guns. The "ribbon" road in the sky shows the pilot path to minimize risk. The scene is viewed from a God's eye perspective; the pilot sees his own airplane from above and behind.Artist's concept shows a possible ATF cockpit configuration with graphic displays showing enemy-fighter radar, weapon stores, engine status, navigational data, and best flight path.Source: Brown, Stuart F.
