Right Engine Fuel Shutoff Handle

right engine shutoff

Pull to shut off fuel to the right engine in case of emergency. Push in to re-enable fuel flow to the engine. Should not be used to secure the engine.

Right engine fire extinguishing button is located behind the handle, accessible when the handle is pulled out.

Standby Attitude Indicator

standby attitude

Standalone standby attitude indicator.

No.Indicator/ControlFunction
1OFF flagVisible on the left side when caged or when un-powered.
2KnobCages/un-cages the indicator and allows trim to correct pitch. In pulled-out position the indicator is caged. When pushed in, un-cages the indicator and allows pitch trim by turning the knob.

UHF/VHF Remote Indicators

front remote

Remote indicators displaying set frequency or channel of UHF 1 (AN/ARC-159) and V/UHF 2 (AN/ARC-182).

No.Control/IndicatorFunction
1UHF 1 remote channel/frequency indicator (pilot)Displays a readout of the frequency or channel set for the UHF 1 radio.
2V/UHF 2 remote channel/frequency indicator (pilot)Displays a readout of the frequency or channel set for the V/UHF 2 radio.

The knobs labelled DIM and BRT control display brightness.

The TEST button initiates a test for the respective indicator, no fault results in a readout of 888.888.

Bearing Distance Heading Indicator (BDHI)

bdhi

Display indicating azimuth and bearing information.

No.IndicatorFunction
1No. 2 bearing pointerIndicates magnetic course to tuned TACAN station.
2Compass roseShows current aircraft magnetic heading.
3No. 1 bearing pointerIndicates bearing to tuned UHF/ADF station.
4Distance counterIndicates slant range to tuned TACAN station in nautical miles. (Not visible in this image.)

ALR-67 Indicator

alr-67

Indicator showing emitters detected by the ALR-67 RWR (radar warning receiver) set.

No.Control/IndicatorFunction
1System status circle, area IUpper left quadrant of 1. Shows symbol indicating type of threats selected to be shown.
2System status circle, area IIUpper right quadrant of 1. Indicates if limited mode is selected.
3System status circle, area IIILower half of 1. Displays failure codes and if offset display is selected.
4Non-lethal bandDisplays emitters not a direct threat to own aircraft, either because deemed out of range or lacking weaponry.
5Lethal bandDisplays threats that are deemed within range and capable of engaging own aircraft but not currently doing so.
6Critical bandDisplays direct threats to own aircraft. Systems capable of engaging own aircraft and showing current intent of doing so.
7INT knobIntensity/brightness knob. Controls the brightness of the display.

System Status Circle

The upper left quadrant (Area I) can show the following symbols:

  • N - Normal
  • I - AI, airborne interceptors prioritized.
  • A - AAA, anti-air artillery prioritized.
  • U - Unknown emitters prioritized.
  • F - Friendly emitters shown in addition to other threats.

The upper right quadrant (Area II) can either be blank (limited mode not selected) or show L if selected. Limited mode will only show the 6 highest prioritized threats on the display.

The lower half shows system status codes:

  • Blank - No failure detected and offset not selected.
  • B - BIT failure.
  • T - Thermal overload.
  • O - Offset display selected. Threats will be separated to allow readout of overlapping symbols. Bearing accuracy degraded for displaced threats.
