Rockwell’s head-up guidance system selected for 7X
Dassault Aviation has selected Rockwell Collins to supply its flight dynamics head-up guidance technology for the Falcon 7X. Based on the HGS head-up guidance system, the 7X HGS is smaller and less heavy compared with previous generation systems. The system provides a wider field-of-view and larger eyebox, allowing the pilot to view information conformal to the outside world in high crosswinds.

The system provides a wider field-of-view and larger eyebox, allowing the pilot to view information conformal to the outside world in high crosswinds. It is also said to enable the pilot to more easily manage approach angle and energy while conducting circling and other difficult approaches. New sensor and database technologies, such as enhanced vision and synthetic vision, can be readily accommodated through onboard software loading and a configurable imaging sensor interface.
