This paper describes the general considerations and operational applications of aircraft night vision goggle(NVG). The operators should recognize the NVG characteristics, natural night light sources and interoperability between them. And they have to keep attention to the method to take steps to avoid misperceptions, illusions during flight, and the negative impact on the effectiveness and safety of the mission. The considerations based on the interoperability between NVG and night operation suggest the evaluation items of NVG field test and flight test.

This paper concerns about the requirement analysis for night vision imaging system(NVIS), whose purpose is to intensify the available nighttime near infrared(IR) radiation sufficiently to be caught by the human eyes on a miniature green phosphor screen. The requirements for NVIS are NVIS radiance(NR), chromaticity, daylight legibility/readability, etc. The NR is a quantitative measure of night vision goggle (NVG) compatibility of a light source as viewed through goggles. The chromaticity is the quality of a color as determined by its purity and dominant wavelength. The daylight legibility/readability is the degree at which words are readable based on appearance and a measure of an instrument's ability to display incremental changes in its output value. In this paper, the requirements of NR, chromaticity, and daylight legibility/readability for Type I and Class B/C NVIS are analyzed. Also the rationale is shown with respect to those requirements.

The tactical datalink system has been recognized as the key element in Network Centric Warfaret(NCW). The military has been putting great efforts into establishing datalink system using existing tactical radio and UMPC. but the aircraft operational environment and the requirement specification for equipments mounted in the avionics are differentiated with those in other platforms, so special efforts are needed to select suitable UMPC. In this paper, we consider the requirement analysis for UMPC in respect of processor performance, operation system (OS) and NVG compatibility. Additionally we have to make a effort to understand the operational environment of aircraft and examine th standard to select the appropriate UMPC, and then we expect to establish the tactical datalink system successfully.
