Hey, that sounds kinda spiffy. Maybe they can play head-to-head Pong on the MFDs during long transits too. That's the funniest thing I've read here in a while. On a related note, the FLIR kits in the H-60 helos deployed on small boys includes a VCR. Whatever the FLIR is looking at gets sent down the datalink to the ship in real time, so everybody can watch it down there. If the VCR is playing a tape, that gets sent instead. You can fill in the blanks on the possibilities. |

I was told that when the ICAP version of the Prowler was in development (Mid -70's) that one of the Navy guys quiped after seeing the back seat DDI's that they need to have PONG in the program. It was two or three weeks later that the Navy discovered the engineers were working on that and how to share dedicated computer space to play PONG. I was on the first Prowler ICAP deployment in VAQ-135 Kitty Hawk 79-80. Sparky |
