Aerial Refueling Tanker and Receiver Aerodynamic Interaction Modeling and Simulation
SBC: COHERENT TECHNICAL SERVICES, INC. Topic: N161003The ability to refuel piloted aircraft in flight is considered a strategic military asset and has been a critical element of success in nearly every US and NATO military engagement of the jet age. Equally important going forward will be the ability to perform Autonomous Aerial Refueling (AAR) and refuel unmanned aircraft in flight. In order to properly set the requirements for AAR, a high-fidelity ...

Common Parachute Descent Trainer
SBC: Intelligent Automation, Inc. Topic: N161007The Navy needs a new parachute trainer that increases the efficiency of training, uses more realistic scenarios, and supports trainees decision-making practice. The current training system has a number of training weaknesses. To address these issues, in Phase I, we generated affordable, efficient practical solutions. These include the (1) use of accessories used in IROK procedures that match the e ...

Intuitive, High Confidence Human-Machine Interface Symbology for Carrier Landing
SBC: Systems Technology, Inc. Topic: N161056Perhaps the most critical task facing a naval fixed-wing aviator each day is to safely land his or her aircraft on the deck of an aircraft carrier underway that is also responding to sea state. Confounding this already difficult task is a degraded visual environment in which key guidance cues may no longer be present. The Navy continually develops new technologies designed to ease pilot workload a ...
