ATTAS and the test team of the 'AWARD' EU project. In 1999, a radar and an infrared camera (FLIR) were installed in its nose boom. With the project, researchers were looking to improve visibility for pilots, known as 'Enhanced Vision'. The data acquired by the additional sensors allowed for the display of contours on a head-up display, superimposing it with the natural vision.
