Download or read book Range Enhancement Equations for Various Refueling Options written by Russell D. Shaver and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document presents a series of simplified equations and numerical calculations indicating the magnitude of range augmentation (or, equivalently, payload enhancement for a fixed range) that refueling by tankers can provide long range combat aircraft (LRCA). The treatment is theoretical and should apply to LRCAs of various design. Examined are several refueling conditions, including two pre-fueling tactics for the tanker and two post-fueling tactics for the tanker. In addition, the author considers both pre- and post-strike refueling for the LRCA, and indicates the potential advantages in range enhancement derived from dropping the payload along the LRCA's flight path. Finally, for analytic convenience, most of the derivations and calculations assume that the LRCA and tanker are equal-size, being derived from the same basic airframe and engine. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book brings together the many pieces of India's nuclear puzzle and the ramifications for South Asia. The author examines the choices facing India from New Delhi's point of view in order to discern which future courses of action appear most appealing to Indian security managers. He details how such choices, if acted upon, would affect U.S. strategic interests, India's neighbors, and the world."--BOOK JACKET.
Download or read book The Impact of Tanker Support on Selection of Long range Combat Aircraft Size written by Russell D. Shaver and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This note addresses the problem of long-range combat aircraft (LRCA) size selection and the impact of tanker support. It examines two possible LRCA missions (the canonical SIOP requirement and the use of LRCAs for world wide force employment (WWFE) with nonnuclear ordnance) and airframe designs. Section II discusses the range/payload equations (with and without tankers) appropriate for SIOP-like missions. Section III describes the range shortfalls for the SIOP mission given specific airframe designs and mission-specific payload weights. Section IV translates these designs into total life-cycle costs, still concentrating on the SIOP-like mission requirements. That section presents the observations about preferred sizes for LRCA if the SIOP were the only mission to be considered. Finally, Section V discusses the impact of the WWFE mission on the above observations. The appendix presents details of the cost estimates upon which the cost estimating relationships used for the analysis were based. (Author).
