Abstract

Modern military transport for increasing missions require a large variety of new functions and capabilities. Conventional tasks of tactical and strategic troop transport are augmented by requirements arising from peace keeping and humanitarian missions for example. A key element for safe and cost efficient development such future transport aircrafts is the use of advanced but pragmatic simulation tool. To recognize problems early in the design process, simulators with the capability to quickly and easily reflect these novel flight control functions are highly advisable. The present paper describes various research activities and prerequisites which such a simulation tool. An initial chapter is devoted to representative aircraft dynamics models and other simulation features. The following illustration depicts real terrain elevation data. SRTM data from one of the Space Shuttle missions has been used to simulate this mountainous terrain.
