Unclassified Boeing Military Aircraft | Vertical Lift Division Protecting Heroes, Saving Lives

9 Unclassified Boeing Military Aircraft | Vertical Lift Division Protecting Heroes, Saving Lives . COOLS – currently being installed in production on all MYII configured aircraft (came out of an AAR) . Allows Chinook crews to quickly reconfigure the floor of the helicopter in 15 minutes or less to accommodate passengers or carry cargo . Provides enhanced functionality for the Chinook . Gives the Army the flexibility of performing a variety of troop missions and cargo missions without any restrictions

. IVCS . Benefits: . 140 lb. weight savings – measured, not calculated Equals or exceeds Analog Self tuning vibration absorber (STVA) performance in all flight regimes . Increased Reliability {analog system was constant problem} . Mitigates analog STVA obsolescence problems . Software Programmable { say if ACRB increased a vibration in some maneuver} . Could provide active notice via temporary increase in vibration level for flight profile or other exceedance, similar to APAS. . Status: . System flight tested on and was left on a Customer CH-47F . Production cut-in on 107 aircraft plus up to 37 options to start on US Army M8453/8171 to be delivered starting Sept 2016

. DVE – DAFCS – Digital Automatic Flight Control System . Benefits: . MTBF ~ 5,000 hours . O&S Cost ~ $16/hour . EMI Protection: 200 V/m . Uses Low Cost PC for Ground Support Equipment . Has MIL-STD-1553 and ARINC-429 Buses to Communicate with Avionics . Provides Real Time Failure Monitors, SBIT, IBIT, MBIT to aid in Troubleshooting . Allows rapid software upgrades . Allows addition of more advance handing quality software algorithms . 2005 - Electronics Technology

. AVMS . Benefits: . Replace (2) force feel pallets with (2) active parallel actuator pallets (same fit, more functionality) . No changes to cockpit controls, ILCAs, mixing, or upper boost . Reduced pilot workload . Adds capabilities to DAFCS which enable next-generation tactile cueing functions for enhanced situational awareness . Relief from conservative torque limits, resulting in more payload where transmission limits constrain aircraft performance . Better handling qualities enable pilots to easily use maximum performance and increase productivity . Potential for retrofit kits . Direct rotor torque measurement (part of a production system) . Objectives: . Hover Performance…The objective of rotor torque management is to balance the power distributed to each rotor which could allow for an increase in the dual-engine transmission torque limit from 101% to 110% in hovering flight. Result is additional lift in conditions where engine power is available but inaccessible due to transmission limits . More hover-height / VROC capability / agility / safety at constant gross weight . More payload capability if below maximum gross weight . Demonstrate the pilot can receive tactile information (feel) about limits and varied sensitivity to make it easier to do a particular mission task. . Cue the pilot so that the torque applied to the forward and aft rotors is controlled; this can allow more of the available power to be used in hover and low speed for increased lift. . Enabler for future potential flying quality enhancements and an optionally piloted configuration.

. ACRB . The U.S. Army contracted Boeing to develop a new H-47 rotor blade to regain 1500lbs of lift capability lost from the H-47D to H-47F, specifically at 4000’/95F, while minimizing any negative effect on forward flight performance or handling qualities. Project started in 2007 with $3M of IR&D funding and evolved through various technical approaches with US ARMY incremental funding starting in 2009. There are six delivery orders that have been executed and closed to date. . Status – first blade completed build and has already commenced destructive testing. Throughout the first build, the team incorporated process learning and work instruction improvements that will benefit all of the follow-on blades
