SBIR-STTR Award

This project will result in the recommendation of a technique to be used for the purpose of evaluating the utility of stol/stovl type aircraft in various operational scenarios. The study effort will include asurvey of previous and ongoing studies to identify potential methodologies, an evaluation of those identified, and recommendation of an optimum technique. A suggested phase II study plan will be included as adeliverable.

This project will result in the development of a computer simulation model that will allow scenario based evaluation and analysis of technology options and alternatives for aircraft and associated systems. The model will be written for the Z-248 computer system that is currently the Air Force standard system. The model will be a modular, two sided, deterministic simulation incorporating aircraft, support system, environmental, and threat elements.
