NATO STO Task Group AVT-25 has been working for three years on re-designing an effective, agile UCAV to meet a specific set of mission requirements. The task group is a follow-on to previous groups that analyzed the SACCON UCAV geometry with wind tunnel and CFD simulations, as well as control surface effectiveness estimations. AVT-215 started with the SACCON geometry and then re-designed the configuration to meet specific mission requirements. The re-design resulted in a new geometry called MULDICON. Details of the design process and multi-disciplinary analysis that took place in the group will be presented, and will serve to introduce the other related papers.
