Active controls offer the promise of significantly increased aircraft performance and operational capability. However, realization of these gains will require major changes in both the aircraft design approach and in the implementation of the flight control system. This AGARDograph addresses related control-configured vehicle design and system considerations summarizes representative applications of active control for fighter and transport aircraft. This AGARDograph was prepared at the request of the Guidance and Control Panel of AGARD.
