  • Usafalmanac ■ Gallery of USAF Weapons
    USAFAlmanac ■ Gallery of USAF Weapons By Susan H.H. Young The B-1B’s conventional capability is being significantly enhanced by the ongoing Conventional Mission Upgrade Program (CMUP). This gives the B-1B greater lethality and survivability through the integration of precision and standoff weapons and a robust ECM suite. CMUP will include GPS receivers, a MIL-STD-1760 weapon interface, secure radios, and improved computers to support precision weapons, initially the JDAM, followed by the Joint Standoff Weapon (JSOW) and the Joint Air to Surface Standoff Missile (JASSM). The Defensive System Upgrade Program will improve aircrew situational awareness and jamming capability.

Abstract. The goal of this work is to simulate and to analyze, by means of the CFD commercial code FLUENT®, the flow around a low-speed acrobatic airplane, the ENAER T- 35 PILLAN, with similar characteristics to the most light civil airplanes, widely used anywhere in the world. Specifically, the aerodynamic loads on the structure are required, specifying the critical conditions of flight and the consequent load distributions on the airplane according to the application of norm FAR-23. Finally, the worst flight conditions happen at the cruise speed (Mach 0.25) and maximum load factor. In this condition the lift and drag forces, bending and torsion moments at the main spar of the wing are maximum, even greater than for the highest speed of flight (Mach 0.37). Finally, a series of graphs were made to considering the maximum loads on the wing as function of the speed of flight and the angle of attack. ***************************************************************** $'2UWL] /(4XLUR]DQG5$.|FN 1 NOMENCLATURE 1.1 General symbols AR Aspect Ratio, dimensionless.

KILRAIN NATO SPECIAL OPERATIONS CYBER HEADQUARTERS SHIELD 2018 THE READINESS IMPERATIVE Cover by Tomislav Brandt IN THIS ISSUE croatian air force Edited by: Vesna PINTARIĆ, Photo: Tomislav BRANDT croatian military magazine The Republic of Croatia has faced one of its most impor- tant and complex strategic decisions involving its defence sector since the 1991-95 Homeland War. It had to choose between retaining the capability to monitor and protect its sovereign air space, or losing that control and thus renouncing the nation’s full sovereignty. Drawing upon its experiences from the Homeland War, in which air force USAF/WikimediaFoto: Commons played a decisive role, the only logical conclusion was that investing in fighter aircraft today meant investing in the future and security of Croatia, and a pre-condition of its stability and future economic development. AT ITS SESSION OF 29 MARCH 2018, THE GOVERNMENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF CROATIA ADOPTED THE DECISION ON THE PROCUREMENT OF A MULTI-ROLE FIGHTER AIRCRAFT, OPTING FOR THE LOCKHEED-MARTIN F-16C/D BLOCK 30 BARAK FROM THE STATE OF ISRAEL.

    Modeling & Simulation for Experimentation, Test & Evaluation and Training: Alenia Aeronautica Experiences and Perspectives Mrs. Marcella Guido Alenia Aeronautica Simulation & System’s Operability C.so Marche 41, 10146 Torino Italy [email protected] Mr. Cristiano Montrucchio Alenia Aeronautica Simulation & System’s Operability Manager C.so Marche, 41, 10146 Torino Italy [email protected] ABSTRACT The use of Modeling & Simulation to support aircraft development is nowadays common practice within any modern aeronautical industry, and a long term key capability of Alenia Aeronautica. Starting from such crucial role, M&S utilization has progressively expanded to effectively support the aeronautical system’s early stages – feasibility and definition, and later stages – in service support and pilots training, becoming an essential element during the entire system’s life cycle. The main tool to implement and sustain such capability is the Synthetic Environment, which relies on the following elements: • Flight Simulators with engineering and training potential • Simulators networking at both LAN and WAN (Local and Wide Area Network) levels • Tactical scenarios • Image generation • Virtual reality The paper will focus on the latest major experiences of Alenia Aeronautica with the AMX ACOL, Eurofighter, C-27J and Sky-X UAV Programs, from systems concept, through development and experimentation, to pilots training and mission rehearsal. Moreover, Alenia Aeronautica’s approach and perspectives in the field of the simulation of Network Centric Operations will be described: the Network Centric Simulation Environment 1.0 INTRODUCTION The use of Modeling & Simulation (M&S) in aerospace engineering is nowadays common practice within any modern aeronautical firm and a long term key capability of Alenia Aeronautica.
