Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The US Army Aviation Test Board conducted the initial-production test of the XM41 armament subsystem to determine its functional suitability. During June 1969, 14,100 rounds of ammunition were fired from the subsystem at Apalachicola Tactical Test Site, Florida. Inspection before and after firing revealed no deficiencies. Three stoppages occurred and two parts were replaced; however, two stoppages were caused by faulty ammunition. The part failures were considered random. One deficiency-failure to furnish spare parts with the test item--and four shortcomings were noted. It was concluded that the XM41 armament subsystem is functionally suitable and recommended that the deficiency and shortcomings be corrected as soon as practical.

Download or read book Engineering Flight Test (product Improvement Test) of Production Oh-6a Helicopter Unarmed and Armed with the Xm-27e1 Weapon System Phase D written by John I. Nagata and published by . This book was released on 1968 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An engineering flight test of the OH-6A helicopter equipped with the XM-27E1 armament subsystem was conducted at Edwards Air Force Base, California, by the US Army Aviation Test Activity. The objective of the test was to determine what effects the armament subsystem had on the performance and stability and control characteristics as compared with an aircraft without the armament subsystem. The testing consisted of 10.25 productive test hours and was conducted from 2 October 1967 through 24 October 1967. Performance degradation resulted from the drag imposed by the armament subsystem. The specific range at 2400 pounds gross weight decreased by 8 percent. The stability and control characteristics were essentially unchanged by the addition of the armament subsystem. During firing tests, there were no adverse control problems. However, during flight at 12 degrees left sideslip at 105 knots indicated airspeed (KIAS), the upper right windshield imploded. The sideslip angle should be limited to 8 degrees or less at 100 KIAS until the cause of the implosion can be determined. Noise level and vibration tests should be conducted during firing with the 'doors off' configuration. The performance data should be incorporated into the operator's manual. (Author).

Book Synopsis Integrated Engineering and Service Test of Cartridge, Target Practice, 40-mm, XM428E1 for M5 Helicopter Armament Subsystem by : F. G. Killeen
Download or read book Integrated Engineering and Service Test of Cartridge, Target Practice, 40-mm, XM428E1 for M5 Helicopter Armament Subsystem written by F. G. Killeen and published by . This book was released on 1968 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The XM428E1 cartridge was developed to satisfy the need for an inexpensive and less hazardous (than the M384 HE cartridge) found for training of helicopter pilots and gunners in use of the M5 armament subsystem. Engineering tests were conducted at Aberdeen Proving Ground over the period of July 1967 to 24 September 1968. Service tests were conducted both at Aberdeen Proving Ground and Ft Rucker, Alabama during the month of June 1968. During the engineering test one early function of the XM428E1 projectile occurred while firing from an M5 helicopter mounted subsystem in flight. Only superficial damage to the aircraft occurred. It was concluded that the XM428E1 cartridge satisfied all engineering and service test requirements other than the 40-foot drop and functioning reliability requirements. It was recommended that the XM428E1 cartridge be considered suitable for use as a training round with the M5 helicopter subsystem, but efforts be directed to improving functioning reliability and eliminating the occurrence of early projectile function.

Book Synopsis Engineering Flight Test of the Ah-1g Helicopter Equipped with the Xm-20 Armament Subsystem (automatic 20mm Cannon). by : Stephen G. Dorris
Download or read book Engineering Flight Test of the Ah-1g Helicopter Equipped with the Xm-20 Armament Subsystem (automatic 20mm Cannon). written by Stephen G. Dorris and published by . This book was released on 1968 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The engineering flight test of the AH-1G helicopter equipped with the XM-20 armament subsystem (automatic 20MM cannon) was conducted at Fort Hood, Texas from 31 January 1968 through 2 February 1968 by the US Army Aviation Test Activity, Edwards Air Force Base, California. Firing and nonfiring flight tests were conducted to determine the effects on the stability and control characteristics of the AH-1G helicopter caused by installation of the XM-20 armament subsystem. These tests were primarily qualitative in nature with limited qualitative data. The only stability and control characteristic which was affected either in the firing or nonfiring mode was the static longitudinal cyclic position gradients which were low at high speeds. The deficiencies detected during this test were the interference of the XM-20 gearbox with the XM-159 rocket pod and unreliability of the standard airspeed system due to the location of the static port in proximity to the XM-20 blast pressures. One firing rate of 600-800 spm is considered optimum. The XM-20 appears to offer greater stand-off capability, greater accuracy and more killing power than 2.75 inch rockets. It appears to be a reliable subsystem. The XM-20 configuration should be finalized, installed on a production AH-1G helicopter and certified for airworthiness throughout the AH-1G flight envelope as soon as possible to allow early introduction to Republic of Vietnam.

Book Synopsis Wiring Vietnam by : Anthony J. Tambini
Download or read book Wiring Vietnam written by Anthony J. Tambini and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2007-05-30 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the Vietnam War, the U.S. Army deployed electronic sensors along the Ho Chi Minh Trail in Laos, Cambodia, North Vietnam, and South Vietnam in order to detect and track troop and vehicle movements. At approximately 8,100 miles in length, monitoring this sophisticated logistics network_consisting of roads, trails, vehicle parks, petroleum pipelines, and storage areas_was no mean task. Since the work was classified as 'Secret' until only recently, a comprehensive story of the electronic sensors used in Southeast Asia has never been completely told. Wiring Vietnam: The Electronic Wall relates the history of the electronic detection system that was deployed during the Vietnam War. Author Anthony Tambini covers everything from the sensors used to detect seismic signals from nearby troop and vehicle movements to audio sensors that were deployed to pick up conversations of troops as well as traffic noise of vehicles to engine ignition detectors. Beginning with the conception, development, and implementation of these sensors, Tambini then relates how, ultimately, the various signals the sensors collected were transmitted to orbiting aircraft that would process and retransmit the signals onward to a base in Thailand. There the data underwent further analysis for possible targets that could be attacked from the air. Anthony Tambini, a member of the 25th Tactical Fighter Squadron based at Ubon, Thailand in the late 1960s, was part of an organization that dropped these sensors. His firsthand perspective, along with rarely seen photographs of the actual sensors used, will provide those interested in the Vietnam War and modern warfare with a clear picture of an undocumented side of history.

Book excerpt: In this “engrossing, well-documented, and highly readable” (San Francisco Chronicle) New York Times bestseller, three veteran reporters draw on top sources inside and outside the U.S. government to reveal Washington's secret strategies for combating germ warfare and the deadly threat of biological and chemical weapons. Today Americans have begun to grapple with two difficult truths: that there is no terrorist threat more horrifying—and less understood—than germ warfare, and that it would take very little to mount a devastating attack on American soil. Featuring an inside look at how germ warfare has been waged throughout history and what form its future might take (and in whose hands), Germs reads like a gripping detective story told by fascinating key figures: American and Soviet medical specialists who once made germ weapons but now fight their spread, FBI agents who track Islamic radicals, the Iraqis who built Saddam Hussein's secret arsenal, spies who travel the world collecting lethal microbes, and scientists who see ominous developments on the horizon. With clear scientific explanations and harrowing insights, Germs is a vivid, masterfully written—and timely—work of investigative journalism.
