Combat Performance Evaluation of Fighter Aircraft - A Suite of FORTRAN- IV Programs Based on Energy Manoeuvrability Theory

Abstract

A suite of FORTRAN-IV computer programs is described which may be used to assist in evaluating relative combat aircraft performance, using energy manoeuverability theory. The programs are described in detail using flowcharts, and full operating instructions are given. A selection of outputs illustrates the graphical and printed capabilities of the suite.
