Main_Body_Multi: AVT-296 Research Task Group (RTG) on “Rotorcraft Flight Simulation Model Fidelity Improvement and Assessment”, Technical Report published on STO Website

The NATO STO Research Task Group AVT-296 has recently published its Technical Report titled “Rotorcraft Flight Simulation Model Fidelity Improvement and Assessment (NU)”. During its three-year mandate, the team, led by the United Kingdom and the United States, attracted participation by multidisciplinary experts from Turkey, the Netherlands, Italy, Germany, France, Canada and Australia. By examining a range of rotorcraft simulation fidelity improvement methods and assessment metrics, the RTG has presented seven different model update methods, from simple to more complex, which will improve the fidelity of a flight simulation model by using eight comprehensive flight test databases. These methods and metrics can be utilized in military and civilian applications to set the criteria that will underpin the use of modelling and simulation in certification which will help accelerate development and acquisition and reduce the cost of new rotorcraft systems and legacy system upgrades. In addition, the criteria may also set standards for training devices to support the expansion of synthetic environments for training to offset the high cost of flying hours. With the aim to widely disseminate the results of the study, the team will conduct the AVT-365 Research Lecture Series (RLS)  virtually on 1 - 3 June 2021 (adjusted for European participants) and 8 – 10 June 2021 (adjusted for North American participants).  The NATO Unclassified and Releasable to the Public versions of the report are available on the STO Website. For further information, please contact the AVT Panel Office.
