The objectives and the aircraft experimental system for the Vectored thrust Aircraft Advanced Flight Control (VAAC) research program are discussed. The VAAC program studies control laws, displays and cockpit controls for advanced STOL aircraft. The objective is to develop concepts and design and assessment techniques through ground based piloted simulation, mathematical studies, and flight in a two-seat fly-by-wire research Harrier aircraft. This work seeks to free the designer from some of the traditioned stability and control constraints and to maximise operational effectiveness throughout the flight envelope VSTOL aircraft.
