Book excerpt: As aeronautical technologies continue to advance, V/STOL airplanes will become increasingly more attractive for a variety of military missions. The decision whether to approve the acquisition of a V/STOL airplane for a particular mission will depend upon factors that include the airplane's expected performance capability, the likely acquisition cost, and the likely amount of time required for research and development. To develop guidelines and techniques for critically evaluating these factors, RAND has analyzed past V/STOL research and development programs, examined the current state of pertinent aeronautical technologies, and developed appropriate analytical tools where suitable information exists. The introduction of future V/STOL airplanes for military missions will continue to depend on mission needs that place a high operational value on the special capabilities of V/STOL airplanes--an operational value high enough to warrant the exceptionally long development times and the premium prices (compared with conventional airplanes) that must be paid for research, development, and procurement.

This book was released on 1980 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this summary report and a companion technical document (AD-B044 537) is to assist the Department of Defense in making critical evaluations of proposed vertical/short takeoff and landing (V/STOL) airplane program characteristics, including airplane performance, acquisition schedule, and acquisition cost. The guidelines and techniques described in these two documents take the form of analytical tools, data, and lessons drawn from previous V/STOL airplane research, development and acquisition experience. The documents focus exclusively on the acquisition phase for the airframe and the propulsion subsystems; avionics is not considered. The operational utility of V/STOL airplanes and the possible new missions to which V/STOL airplanes might be uniquely suited are not addressed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few technological advances have affected the lives and dreams of individuals and the operations of companies and governments as much as the continuing development of flight. From space exploration to package transport, from military transport to passenger helicopter use, from passenger jumbo jets to tilt-rotor commuter planes, the future of flying is still rapidly developing. The essays in this volume survey the state of progress along several fronts of this constantly evolving frontier. Five eminent authorities assess prospects for the future of rotary-wing aircraft, large passenger aircraft, commercial aviation, manned spaceflight, and defense aerospace in the post-Cold War era.
