An Analytical Investigation of Low Altitude Display Systems (LADS).
Abstract
An analytical study was conducted using the systems approach to derive avionics systems concepts and display configurations which potentially offer improved low altitude flight capabilities. Primary consideration was given to obtaining information pertinent to the design of Terrain Following (TF), Terrain Avoidance (TA), and Navigation (NAV) display systems for use in all classes of single-place tactical air-vehicles during the low altitude penetration phase of preplanned missions. A review of operational requirements and existing capabilities indicated that a major advance in mission effectiveness is dependent on obtaining improved NAV capabilities.
