The U.S. Department of Defense has established the Future Vertical Lift initiative to develop a family of next-generation vertical lift aircraft that will fly farther, faster, and more efficiently than the current fleet of rotorcraft. To accomplish these goals, advanced rotorcraft configurations beyond the single main rotor/tail rotor design must be considered. Two advanced configurations currently being flight tested in a technologydemonstrator program are a lift offset coaxial rotorcraft with a pusher propeller and a tiltrotor. The U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command Aviation and Missile Center Technology Development Directorate has developed generic, high-fidelity flight-dynamics models of these two configurations to provide the government with independent control-system design, handling-qualities analysis, and simulation researchcapabilities for these types of aircraft in support of the Future Vertical Lift initiative.
