Survivability of military combat aircraft has received increased emphasis
by the U.S. Armed Services in recent years. The primary objective of the
U.S. Military Survivability Policy is to ensure that effective survivability
enhancement features are incorporated in current and all future U.S. combat
aircraft. Technology advances in Fly-By-Wire Flight Control Systems have
significantly enhanced the performance capabilities of modern fighter/attack
aircraft. In consonance with the military services survivability policy.
a series of survivability design guidelines for Fly-By-Wire Flight Control
Systems have been developed, and are herein presented. A recommendation
for future survivability enhancement through the use of digital flight
control technology, in a manner similar to artificial intelligence, is
presented.
