Generic Test Bed (GTB) Aircraft.

Abstract

The Night Attack Workload Steering Group (NAWSG) was requested by HQ AFSC/SD to investigate the need for a Generic Test Bed aircraft and to identify potential candidate aircraft. The team learned a need existed for an aircraft that could perform near the night attack envelope. The aircraft is needed to test, under realistic conditions, both the avionics and their effect on pilot crew workload. The team also identified several potential candidate aircraft that had sufficient cockpit space, volume, cooling and power to permit it to support this mission. (Author)
