The Up Front Controller was introduced in the A-10C so that important settings can be made quickly without having to look too far away from the HUD. It is a control unit whose buttons control and input of settings to other cockpit units.

For the F/A-18C this concept has been extended so that entries can only be made via the centrally located UFC.
