cockpit systems. On this platform, ScioTeq’s RDU-3068 displays will integrate seamlessly with the airborne avionics computer and software suite. We look forward to supporting air forces that rely on the PC-7 MKX to train the next generation of pilots.”
The RDU-3068 is a PCAP touchscreen enabled, rugged display designed for extreme environments. It has been engineered to meet stringent performance and durability standards demanded by military flight training. It offers highresolution graphics, robust environmental tolerance, and flexible data interfaces — all designed to support pilot situational awareness and instruction-centric avionics workflows in both live flight and simulator modes. The display comes with an EASA/FAA TSO C113 civil certification. “Pilot training systems like the PC-7 MKX demand smart high-tech avionics that can withstand rigorous operational use while presenting missioncritical information clearly and reliably,” added Ioannis Papachristofilou, VP Government Aviation at Pilatus. “The RDU-3068 delivers on these requirements and strengthens ScioTeq’s role as our long-trusted avionics partner.” This latest award builds on ScioTeq’s almost 30-year collaboration with Pilatus, in which the
company has delivered thousands of certified displays and computing solutions across Pilatus’s trainer and civil aircraft product lines.
