On-Board Aircraft Damage Assessment.

Abstract

The need for crews of strategic aircraft to assess in real time the damage to their aircraft in a nuclear encounter is evaluated. Current on-board sensors are shown to be inadequate and types of sensors are prepared to give on-board damage assessment capability. A plan is proposed to develop and test such sensors. (Author)
