Grob Aircraft AG Aircraft G 120TP

The intelligent training solution of the 21st century The G 120TP symbolizes the 21st century evolution of basic flight training. Simplicity in pilot operation and system functions make the G 120TP the only sophisticated mission training platform that can accommodate typical elementary, basic and advanced pilot training segments. The cost efficiency of the G 120TP redefines training cost and budgets. High performance, full Virtual Tactical Training capability including HOTAS, combined with high dispatch reliability make the G 120 TP not only the most cost efficient solution for the future, but also the best integrated training system overall. Safety is not compromised with the new light weight Ejection Seat by Martin Baker, securing the operators future pilot investment. GROB Aircraft AG´s integration of the reliable RR 250-B17F turbine provides a power upgrade while eliminating the need of multiple fuels. G 120TP is the only side by side military training aircraft certified in the 21st century with full aerobatic and military training capability. Turbine powered high performance combined with operating simplicity makes the G 120TP the ideal platform for learning the first steps of flying all the way to pushing the envelope at 6g during the aerobatic training phase. Cockpit/Avionics The perfect basic platform for tomorrow's pilot. The unique and state of the art open architecture mission simulation system of the G 120TP allows the training of student pilots from initial all the way through basic flight training. With the pilots progress of skills, tactical missions with airborne simulations are now available. Possible previously only on light jet and or high performance turbo-prop trainers. The 21st century cockpit concept, with a new dimension of download potential is on the market. Improving the quality of training while realizing enormous saving in live cycle cost. Streamline your pilot training investment of the future. Full military mission training capability. A highly effective and low cost way to train flight students in the use of todays front line fighter-, helicopter- and transport aircraft mission avionics. The trainee will be able to plan the mission and operate the system elements by means of real or simulated panels switches and HOTAS identical to advanced mission aircraft. Radar displays and operation, as available in front line fighters, are imitated, to give the trainee a comprehensive understanding of the system. Monitoring trainee’s operation by the Instructor Pilot in the side by side cockpit is done with ease by following the trainee’s actions across the cockpit while the Instructor Pilot can also utilize the same controls and displays to demonstrate every step of the training.
