Flight Controls and Pilot-Vehicle Interface

Abstract

This project develops technologies that enable maximum affordable capability from manned, remotely-piloted, and autonomous aerospace vehicles. Advanced control, automation, and autonomy technologies are developed for maximum vehicle performance throughout the flight envelope and simulated in full-scale, surrogate, and virtual environments. Resulting technologies contribute significantly towards the development of reliable autonomous or remotely piloted air vehicles, hypersonic aircraft, and extended-life legacy aircraft. In FY 2025, the entirety of PE 0602201F, Aerospace Vehicle Technologies, Project 622403 Flight Controls and Pilot-Vehicle Interface, will be transferred to PE 0602203F, Aerospace Propulsion, Project 622403 Flight Controls and Pilot-Vehicle Interface for increased integration between airframe, flight control, propulsion, electrical, power and thermal management.
