The Survivable Flight Control System (SFCS) program is an advanced development program of which the principal objective is the development and flight test demonstration of an SFCS utilizing Fly-By-Wire and Integrated Actuator Package techniques. Phase I, which includes the installation, ground and flight testing of a Simplex Integrated Actuator Package (Simplex package) powering the stabilator of an F-4 aircraft is described. The Simplex package was designed and manufactured by Ling-Temco-Vought, Electrosystems, Arlington, Texas, under contract to the Air Force Flight Dynamics Laboratory. The package was furnished to McDonnell Aircraft Company for laboratory check out, installation in an F-4 aircraft, and flight testing to verify the 'get-home-and-land' capability provided by the integral emergency hydraulic system. Several minor package redesigns were required prior to flight testing due to problems uncovered by MCAIR laboratory testing. Results of the flight testing verify the Simplex package concept as a feasible design technology for increasing the probability of aircraft survival following loss of central hydraulic system power. Studies and analyses conducted concurrent with the testing have evolved mathematical models and analytical techniques which will be used in the development of advanced integrated actuator packages. Recommendations for future package designs are included. A survivability analysis is presented in a classified supplement to this report. (Author)
