This paper describes a new dedicated avionics integration laboratory facility at McDonnell Aircraft Company in St. Louis, Missouri. The facility consists of a closed laboratory area with forced cooling air, all necessary power, mux bus interconnections, discrete signal interfaces, and voice communication lines to other avionic lab areas. The major element of the facility is the Avionic System Integration Bench (ASIB). The ASIB consists of two components; the Central Computer Integration Bench, and the Controls and Displays Integration Bench. The ASIB, with dedicated aircraft equipment installed, is the nucleus for all integration tests. The combinations of benches, systems, and software provides a flexible and capable integration tools. The facility became operational in Fall 1986, and is a cornerstone in laboratory testing for the F-15E avionics system.
