The report presents the results of the Phase 2 Quiet Helicopter Program. A Hughes OH-6A Light Observation Helicopter was extensively modified to obtain a maximum of quieting. The purpose was to apply the latest known sound-suppression techniques available to industry to an actual helicopter and then to measure the results. An acoustic goal was set which required a balanced treatment of each noise-producing source throughout the full frequency range. Noise reductions ranged from 14 to 20 db depending on the flight conditions. The report describes the detailed configuration changes, the test and development programs, and the final sound level measurements compared to the standard OH-6A. (Author)
