Development and Evaluation of an Automatic Departure Prevention System and Stall Inhibitor for Fighter Aircraft.

摘要

The report documents the conceptual design,breadboard development and pilot-in-the-loop evaluation of an automatic departure prevention system and a stall inhibitor for fighter aircraft. Using the A-7D as the study aircraft, a departure boundary characterized by alpha and beta was determined from the available data. This departure boundary was then used to help design an automatic departure preventer and a stall inhibitor. An automatic departure prevention device as described in the report works smoothly and will benefit the A-7aircraft. With just the departure preventer,the pilots could maneuver freely,with great confidence and use the full capability of the airplane,well beyond the present departure boundary.
