Advanced Concepts for Avionics/Weapon System Design, Development and Integration: Conference Proceedings of the Avionics Panel Symposium (45th) Held at Ottawa, Canada on 18-22 April 1983

摘要

The objective of this meeting is to exchange information and ideas among the various disciplines involved in weapon system design to the benefit of integrated system developments for future defense programs. As each new military aircraft design depends increasingly on avionics, the overall system becomes more versatile, but also more complex. In order to realize the benefits of advanced integration and to maintain compatible timescales throughout subsystems development and test phases, intelligent integrated design concepts and proper coordination of the development program are essential. Design and development concepts considered in this meeting are: Initiate design in terms of overall system to satisfy operational requirement; Conduct parallel design and development activities in all relevant disciplines; Retention of design and application flexibility and growth in subsystems by means of appropriate data processing and subsystem inter/intracommunications structure; Planning of logistic support elements including reliability, maintainability and supportability as well as life cycle cost considerations; and Comprehensive integrated ground testing prior to airborne evaluation of the weapon systems.
