• Source: RAF High G Training and Test Facility

The RAF High G Training and Test Facility was opened on 4 February 2019 at RAF College Cranwell to provide high-G training to Royal Air Force and Royal Navy fast jet pilots.
The facility was created by Thales UK in collaboration with the RAF.




Capabilities


The 39 tonne Human Training Centrifuge can accelerate up to 9G in one second, rotating up to 34 times a minute at speeds of 55mph.




Usage


The simulator can be used by fast jet pilots to practice G-straining under the supervision of medical personnel. The system contains a flight simulator that allows the pilot to "fly" and apply the G-forces as they would in a real aircraft. This is aided by its ability to simulate pitch and roll. The cockpit can be configured to match a Hawk T2, Typhoon or F35B Lightning.
Pilots are expected to receive training on the simulator at least once every 5 years.
