FPDT, Fighter Pilot Debrief Tool, was designed to allow pilots to log and configure the types of actions they would normally do in a combat related mission. This log is then meant to be used for training purposes after the mission to debrief the pilots on how well they did. The app logs the event name, location data, and the time of the event. This data can then be exported into a PDF or plaintext. The app also allows real time monitoring of this location data, and more specifically contains live "bullseye" targeting information.
