Project DAME - Flight and Simulation Testing of a Modified Bomb Dummy Unit.

Abstract

Results of a program to determine thermal and vibrational environments imposed on an air-launched propulsion system during captive carriage on high-performance aircraft are presented. Fabrication, instrumentation, ground and flight testing, and analysis of the bomb dummy unit used in the tests and implications, from data obtained, for motor qualification testing of tactical missiles are discussed. The 20 flight tests and three series of ground simulation tests to which the bomb dummy unit was subjected are described, and data obtained from each are presented. (Author)
