Air Cushion Vehicle Control Simulation. Proposed Amphibious Assault Landing Craft Program Plan

Abstract

The report is a summary of simulation needs and recommendations specific to the current Navy amphibious assault landing craft (AALC) Program which is developing high speed amphibious air cushion vehicles (ACV). The recommendations fall within three categories: mathematical modelling, hybrid computer facility, and man-in-the-loop simulation. To a large extent the needs and recommendations presented here are applicable to other Navy programs as well, since many factors are common to any craft development program.
