What WRA utilizes the ADF information to position the ADF bearing symbol on the display?

• A. Flight Management System
• B. Autopilot
• C. Radar Processor
• D. Mission Computer 1 - Navigation

Answer: (D)

Positioning the ADF bearing symbol on the weather radar display relies on the navigation data and calculations that come from the aircraft’s navigation processor. The Mission Computer 1 - Navigation holds the aircraft’s position, heading, and the ADF bearing data, then combines them to determine where the ADF symbol should appear on the WRA display. This overlay is a navigation display function, not a control function or radar image task. The Flight Management System focuses on flight planning and performance, the Autopilot uses nav data to control the aircraft without rendering symbols, and the Radar Processor handles radar returns. So the symbol’s placement is handled by the navigation portion of the mission computer.
