Military Avionics Systems / Aerospace Series (PEP) (ePub)

Ian Moir and Allan Seabridge

Military avionics is a complex and technically challenging field
which requires a high level of competence from all those involved
in the aircraft design and maintenance. As the various systems on
board an aircraft evolve to become more and more inter-dependent
and integrated, it is becoming increasingly important for designers
to have a holistic view and knowledge of aircraft systems in order
to produce an effective design for their individual components and
effectively combine the systems involved.

This book introduces the military roles expected of aircraft
types and describes the avionics systems required to fulfil these
roles. These range from technology and architectures through to
navigations systems, sensors, computing architectures and the
human-machine interface. It enables students to put together
combinations of systems in order to perform specific military
roles.

* Sister volume to the authors' previous successful title
'Civil Avionics Systems'

* Covers a wide range of military aircraft roles and systems
applications

* Offers clear and concise system descriptions

* Includes case studies and examples from current projects

* Features full colour illustrations detailing aircraft display
systems

Military Avionics Systems will appeal to
practitioners in the aerospace industry across many disciplines
such as aerospace engineers, designers, pilots, aircrew,
maintenance engineers, ground crew, navigation experts, weapons
developers and instrumentation developers. It also provides a
valuable reference source to students in the fields of systems and
aerospace engineering and avionics.
