Integrated Airframe Demonstrations

The objective of the project described in this viewgraph presentation is to develop and verify the technology required for the application of minimal weight control surfaces that meet MASP vehicle requirements. The approaches include the development of design and fabrication concepts, the verification of concept design through sub-component fabrication and tests, the design and fabrication of a full-scale segment of the carbon-carbon control surface, and the design verification and fabrication technology by thermal and structural tests.
