LOW COST PRODUCTION STUDY OF A FLUIDIC MISSILE CONTROL SYSTEM.

Abstract

The purpose of the study is to investigate all the costs associated with the mass production of a fluidic directional control system for a tactical artillery missile. This report considers the following factors influencing the cost of the control system: Performance requirements; Design of system sub-assemblies; Specific improvements in design of subassemblies; Production manufacturing techniques for system sub-assemblies; Production assembly techniques for sub-assemblies and the system; Production tests required for adequate quality assurance; and Areas where further development will lead to improvements in cost or weight or performance. The report also defines the estimating philosophy used and the labor rates used to generate the cost estimate. (Author)
