An investigation was conducted to determine the feasibility of an advanced deployable impact attenuation system for use with aerospace vehicles. Performance of the system with a boilerplate AQM-34V RPV was quantified through a series of full-scale impact tests. A prototype design and costing analysis is presented. The conclusion was that the Foam Impact Attenuation System (FIAS) could provide the optimum system for the ground recovery of RPV's. (Author)
