Economic Feasibility of Standardized Avionics.

Abstract

The study examines some of the economic implications of using standard avionics. It uses case studies of radar altimeters and inertial navigation systems to identify the major elements of life cycle cost that might be affected by standardization and to estimate the order of magnitude of possible savings. Also included are the major risks of standardization and a consideration of the value of form, fit, and function standards to the Military. (Author)
