The objective of this PAE was to conduct a limited quantitative performance and handling qualities evaluation of the RC-12H to determine the effects of the sensor pod and antenna configuration on performance and handling qualities. The RC-12H (GUARDRAIL/COMMON SENSOR) is an RC-12D aircraft which has been modified to accommodate larger direction finder/electronic intelligence (DF/ELINT) pods on each wing tip and the communications high accuracy airborne location syste. The RC-12H manufactured by BAC, is a pressurized, all-weather transport with all-metal construction. Keywords: Army aircraft; Transport aircraft. (SDW)
