ANALYSIS AND DESIGN OF AN ELECTRON GUN-MOLECULAR BEAM INSTRUMENT FOR USE IN FREE RADICAL STUDIES

Abstract

AD-26 72517N3 AD-266 726Div. 1 U (TIPTA/LSK) General Dynamics/Fort Worth, Tex. DEFENSE SYSTEMS OPERATOR TRAINER, TYPE AN/ASQ-T1 B-58 AIRCRAFT, by G. S. Van Meter, Jr. Aug 61, 33p. incl. illus. (Rept. no. FZM-2252) (Contract AF 33(600)38611) (ASD TR 61-86) Unclassified report DESCRIPTORS: (*Aircraft defense systems, Aviation personnel, Jet bombers, *Training devices, Design.) (*R r target position simulators, Aerial targets, Interception probabilities, Simulation, Flight simulators, Recording devices.) Identifiers: B-58, AN/ASQ-T1. Unique features of the B-58 Defense Systems Operator Trainer and design considerations and technical results with regard to the trainer are discussed. The trainer consists of trai e station which is an exact duplic of e third crew station of the B-58 aircraft; an instructor's station; plus various cabinets containing air conditioning equipment, recording equipment, and computers. The device may be used for all phases of transitional and proficiency training for the third crew member of the B-58. Two major trainer systems are discussed. The target generation system provi es for the simultaneous presentation of three simulated airborne targets. The initial conditions under which these targets begin their passes, plus target maximum performance characteristics, are programmed. The system then computes range and azimuth data to simulate attacking vehicles flying a lead collision or pursuit course. The performance evaluation system provides information for a rapid and valid evaluation of the DSO student's performance and operating techniques. The system includes a mission programmer, a print recorder and a tel system. A general discussion and description of the performance evaluator and the target generators re presented. (Author)
