The L-3 Lynx TerrainVision enablement offers helicopter and fixed-wing operators accurate terrain depictions and color coded display for greater ground proximity situational awareness. While not a certified TAWS application, the same database integrity and color coding protocol is shared with the Lynx TSO authorized TAWS. The TerrainVision enablement is for panel-mounted NGT-9000 models and can be activated at any time without modification to the Lynx system hardware.
