Abstract

This document is a historical document for the X-15. This document presents a two-part history of Honeywell's development and flight testing program directed toward adaptive c ontrols for the X-15. Part One gives a brief history of the design and development of Honeywell's prototype X-15 adaptive flight control system in an F-101A. Adaptive principles of the X-15 system are also described.
