simple bombs by hand, to the highly agile, stealthy aircraft of
today that can deliver smart ordnance with extreme accuracy,
engineers have striven to develop the capability to deliver weapons
against targets reliably, safely and with precision.
Aircraft Systems Integration of Air-Launched Weapons
introduces the various aspects of weapons integration, primarily
from the aircraft systems integration viewpoint, but also considers
key parts of the weapon and the desired interactions with the
aircraft required for successful target engagement.
Key features:
* Addresses the broad range of subjects that relate directly to
the systems integration of air-launched weapons with aircraft, such
as the integration process, system and
subsystem architectures, the essential contribution that open,
international standards have on improving interoperability and
reducing integration costs and timescales
* Describes the recent history of how industry and bodies such as
NATO have driven the need for greater interoperability between
weapons and aircraft and worked to reduce the cost
and timescales associated with the systems integration of
complex air-launched weapons with aircraft
* Explores future initiatives and technologies relating to the
reduction of systems integration costs and timescales
The systems integration of air-launched weapons with aircraft
requires a multi-disciplinary set of engineering
capabilities. As a typical weapons integration life-cycle
spans several years, new engineers have to learn the skills
required by on-the-job training and working with experienced
weapons integrators. Aircraft Systems Integration of
Air-Launched Weapons augments hands-on experience, thereby
enabling the development of subject matter expertise more quickly
and in a broader context than would be achieved by working through
the life-cycle on one specific project. This book also serves
as a useful revision source for experienced engineers in the
field.
Keith Rigby, Autonomous Systems, BAE Systems Military Air Solutions, UK Keith Rigby is Chief Weapons Engineer - Autonomous Systems, BAE Systems Military Air Solutions. He has spent his entire career with BAE Systems, starting as a graduate in 1984 within Armament Control Systems & progressing to a senior management position on the Tornado GR4 engineering team. He then becoming Head of Weapons Control & Integration within the Air Systems business before assuming his current position in November 2008. During the last 25 years he has been involved in all aspects of the design, development and certification of armament systems and has been a key player in a number of weapon integration programmes including the weaponisation of unmanned systems. He is the author of the Weapons Integration chapter in the Encyclopaedia of Aerospace Engineering.
