Propose to advance three dimensional decoy frame developments and innovations achieved under sbir phase i. Research will include review of pre-prototype unit for deployment, striking, operational and component improvement methods. Several frame concepts will be developed for mid-size, large scale, and helicopter profiles. Designs emphasis includes: component reduction, weight reduction, minimum collapsed volume, producibility, and streamlined deployment. Finite mathematical models of final frame configurations will be developed and service condition loads applied. Results will be applied to individual component models. A trade off analysis considering materials, weight, producibility, ils, and human factors requirements will be conducted. Individual components will be fabricated and tested to verigy results of f.e.m. Analysis. Decoy cover materials, processing, and fabrication will be researched to ensure compatibility with integral flexible strength members and multi-spectral signatures. Prototype units will be constructed for a mid-size, a large scale, and a helicopter vehicle profile including frame systems and integral covers. Prototype units will be tested to verify functional and loading requirements. The proposal is made by a small, disadvantaged business (as defined by d.o.d. Guidelines) whose employees have the knowledge and experience required.
