Helicopter Guidance and Control Systems for Battlefield Support Held at Monterey, California on 8-11 May 1984.

Abstract

The significance of helicopter operations in the land battle scenario of the future is increasing. Advances in sensors, weapons and avionics systems can only lead to improvements in operational effectiveness of helicopters if a total systems approach to the vehicle/crew/mission systems/environment is pursued. These proceedings from AGARD's Guidance and Control Panel address this specific topic since helicopters represent a very significant portion of the future fleet of air vehicles. The various sessions were structured as follows: Requirements and operational use of future helicopters; New methods of briefing helicopter crews and tactically setting up the mission systems before and during the flight; Flight control, displays, communications, navigation; Sensors and weapon systems integration in overall cockpit design; and Simulation and flight research and development experience.
