Biotechnology Research Requirements for Aeronautical Systems through the Year 2000. Volume II. Proceedings of Biotechnology Research Requirements Study Session, 4-8 January 1982

摘要

This report discusses the basic biotechnology research problems that require solution by the year 2000 to ensure optimum performance of manned Air Force aeronautical systems. The projected aeronautical systems for strategic, tactical and support systems are discussed, with emphasis placed on the roles of increased automation and information processing, as well as the increased physical stress of higher performance aircraft, extended mission durations and new weapon threats. Six generic areas of biotechnology are considered, along with the research needed to address the needs of the year 2000 aircrew. (Author)
