Synopsis

This extensively illustrated text presents the fundamentals of the aircraft combat survivability design discipline as defined by the DoD Military Standard issued in 1981 and still in use today. It provides the history of, the concepts for, the assessment methodology of, and the design technology for the nonnuclear combat survivability analysis and design of fixed- and rotary-wing aircraft and missiles.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Today aircraft combat survivability is an established design discipline for U.S. military aircraft. More important, survivability is now an essential part of the U.S. Department of Defense acquisition process. Furthermore, improving public health, safety, and survivability is now woven throughout the civil and commercial sector. From infant car seats to the design of aircraft cargo bay structures that can withstand internal bomb blasts, the government is taking the lead in establishing survivability standards.

Approximately 10,000 copies of the first edition were sold in five printings. It remains the only book of its kind and is required reading for anyone involved in the design of air combat vehicles.

The extensively illustrated second edition of the textbook presents the fundamentals of the aircraft combat survivability design discipline as defined by DoD military standards and acquisition processes. It provides the history of, and the concepts, assessment methodology, and design technology for combat survivability analysis and design of fixed- and rotary-wing aircraft, UAVs, and missiles. Each chapter specifies learning objectives; stresses important points; and includes notes, references, bibliographies, and questions.

The Fundamentals of Aircraft Combat Survivability: Analysis and Design on CD-ROM is included with your purchase of the hardcover. The CD-ROM gives you the portability and searchability that you need in your busy environment. It is considerably smaller and lighter than the textbook so it is available when you are away from the office or traveling. It can also be searched to quickly locate a particular word or phrase.
