Installation of an automatic air collision avoidance system that developers say will save a significant number of lives and “billions of dollars” in fighter service over the next two decades is underway on a U.S. Air Force F-16 testbed.
Lightweight composite parts for the hot section of future military and commercial engines will take a step closer to reality through tests now underway on the General Electric/Rolls-Royce F136 for the Joint Strike Fighter.
Sikorsky will start flying the prototype S-76D medium helicopter with composite main rotor blades within days, marking the resumption of full flight tests that are to include three aircraft by early June. The blades form a key element of the upgraded design that will also include a new tail rotor, more powerful Pratt & Whitney Canada PW210S engines, a Thales-developed integrated avionics cockpit, active vibration control and an advanced health and usage monitoring system (HUMS).
