Abstract
Abstract The situation awareness (SA) requirements of air-to-air fighter pilots were assessed through a series of analyses, including (a) unstructured interviews, (b) goal-directed task analysis, and (c) structured questionnaires administered to experienced pilot subjects. The resultant requirements and information on the relative priority among elements are presented along with a methodology for determining SA requirements in various systems. Limitations of the study and implications for cockpit design are discussed.
