ABSTRACT (maximum 200 words) This report documents a systems engineering and design capstone project, directed by the Total Ship Systems Engineering (TSSE) facutly and undertaken by students in the TSSE program at the Naval Postgraduate School and performed over two academic quarters. It takes a fresh look at the basic design and operation of the modern aircraft carrier, assuming availability of short take- off and vertical landing (STOVL) aircraft, employing gas turbine ship propulsion and providing significant capability to support humanitarian operations. In the design study reported here, the authors take a systems engineering approach to a totally new carrier design which may best suit the requirements for the next generation aircraft carrier. The central goal was to provide a ship to meet all of the current mission requirements of the existing Nimitz class carriers but in a platform that is significantly lower in life cycle costs. The outcome is a ship based on a concept called “super-island”; a large island structure that can provides drive-through “pit- stops” for aircraft refueling and rearming as well as other major functions. Other areas of major innovation include: weapons handling, information processing and distribution, engineering layout and manning. The report provides an overview of the major ship systems as well as detailed discussions of selected design areas chosen to illustrate those systems that had the most impact on meeting design goals. 14.

The project was under the direction of Professors C. N. Calvano and R. Harney. The design team consisted of: LT Neil Meister, USCG; LT Jim Melvin, USN; LT Thuy Do, USN; LT Eric Legear, USN, LT Kathryn Christensen, USN; LT Steve Debus, USN and Mr. Mike McClatchey, Office of Naval Intelligence. ABSTRACT In the era since World War II, the aircraft carrier has arguably been the type of naval combatant that has undergone the least innovation. With the end of the Cold War, the shift of focus from blue water engagements to littoral operations and the stark realities of fiscal conservatism, a fresh look at the basic design and operation of the modern aircraft carrier is warranted. In addition, major advances in computers and information systems, short take-off and vertical landing (STOVL) aircraft, automated handling systems and robotics provide new challenges and opportunities to the basic shape and functioning of the aircraft carrier. In the design study reported here, we examine these often conflicting constraints and technologies and by means of a systems engineering approach we offer a totally new carrier design which we feel best suits the requirements we were given for the next generation aircraft carrier. Our central goal in this design was to provide a ship that can meet all of the current mission requirements of the existing Nimitz class carriers but in a platform that is significantly cheaper in life cycle costs. The outcome of our effort is a ship based on a concept we call “super-island”; a large island structure that can provides drive-through “pit-stops” for aircraft refueling and rearming as well as other major functions. Other areas where we made major innovations include: weapons handling, information processing and distribution, engineering layout and manning. Following an introduction, the first part of this document outlines the requirements which constrained our design. These requirements include both the prescribed requirements in our Mission Need Statement (MNS) as well as a list of derived requirements generated through our review of the MNS and other requirements documents. The second part of the report outlines the initial design decisions and trade-off analyses which led to our proposed ship. The final section of the report provides an overview of the major ship systems as well as detailed discussions of selected design areas. The sheer magnitude of an aircraft carrier design and the limited time frame available prohibit us from presenting detailed discussions of all design areas. The selected areas that are presented, however, are an attempt to present those systems that had the most impact on meeting our design goals. 2 Table of Contents List of Figures and Tables.................................................................................................................6 1 Introduction...............................................................................................................................8 2 Requirements ............................................................................................................................8 2.1 Mission Need Statement and Supplemental Guidance .........................................................8 2.2 Analysis and Implications ...................................................................................................25 2.2.1 STOVL / Emergency CTOL Capability.....................................................................25 2.2.2 Aircraft Weapons Load Out ........................................................................................25 2.2.3 Humanitarian Relief Capabilities................................................................................25 2.2.4 Gas Turbine Propulsion..............................................................................................26 2.2.5 Decreased Manning.....................................................................................................26 2.3 Derived Requirements.........................................................................................................26 2.3.1 Airwing Mix................................................................................................................26 2.3.2 Landing Rate...............................................................................................................29 3 Initial Design Decisions..........................................................................................................30 3.1 Design Philosophy ..............................................................................................................30 3.1.1 Improved Flight Deck Operations ..............................................................................30 3.1.2 Automated Aviation Weapons Handling ....................................................................30 3.1.3 Increased Sortie Rate ..................................................................................................30

  • Ops Block Battle of Britain: Ops Block
    Large print guide BATTLE OF BRITAIN Ops Block Battle of Britain: Ops Block This Operations Block (Ops Block) was the most important building on the airfield during the Battle of Britain in 1940. From here, Duxford’s fighter squadrons were directed into battle against the Luftwaffe. Inside, you will meet the people who worked in these rooms and helped to win the battle. Begin your visit in the cinema. Step into the cinema to watch a short film about the Battle of Britain. Duration: approximately 4 minutes DUXFORD ROOM Duxford’s Role The Battle of Britain was the first time that the Second World War was experienced by the British population. During the battle, Duxford supported the defence of London. Several squadrons flew out of this airfield. They were part of Fighter Command, which was responsible for defending Britain from the air. To coordinate defence, the Royal Air Force (RAF) divided Britain into geographical ‘groups’, subdivided into ‘sectors.’ Each sector had an airfield known as a ‘sector station’ with an Operations Room (Ops Room) that controlled its aircraft. Information about the location and number of enemy aircraft was communicated directly to each Ops Room. This innovative system became known as the Dowding System, named after its creator, Air Chief Marshal Sir Hugh Dowding, the head of Fighter Command. The Dowding System’s success was vital to winning the Battle of Britain. Fighter Command Group Layout August 1940 Duxford was located within ‘G’ sector, which was part of 12 Group. This group was primarily responsible for defending the industrial Midlands and the north of England, but also assisted with the defence of the southeast as required.

  • FROM CRADLE to GRAVE? the Place of the Aircraft
    FROM CRADLE TO GRAVE? The Place of the Aircraft Carrier in Australia's post-war Defence Force Subthesis submitted for the degree of MASTER OF DEFENCE STUDIES at the University College The University of New South Wales Australian Defence Force Academy 1996 by ALLAN DU TOIT ACADEMY LIBRARy UNSW AT ADFA 437104 HMAS Melbourne, 1973. Trackers are parked to port and Skyhawks to starboard Declaration by Candidate I hereby declare that this submission is my own work and that, to the best of my knowledge and belief, it contains no material previously published or written by another person nor material which to a substantial extent has been accepted for the award of any other degree or diploma of a university or other institute of higher learning, except where due acknowledgment is made in the text of the thesis. Allan du Toit Canberra, October 1996 Ill Abstract This subthesis sets out to study the place of the aircraft carrier in Australia's post-war defence force. Few changes in naval warfare have been as all embracing as the role played by the aircraft carrier, which is, without doubt, the most impressive, and at the same time the most controversial, manifestation of sea power. From 1948 until 1983 the aircraft carrier formed a significant component of the Australian Defence Force and the place of an aircraft carrier in defence strategy and the force structure seemed relatively secure. Although cost, especially in comparison to, and in competition with, other major defence projects, was probably the major issue in the demise of the aircraft carrier and an organic fixed-wing naval air capability in the Australian Defence Force, cost alone can obscure the ftindamental reordering of Australia's defence posture and strategic thinking, which significantly contributed to the decision not to replace HMAS Melbourne.
