A series of dynamic tests of both operational and prototype H-60 troop seats was performed to determine occupant protection during a crash event. The H-60A/L, UH-60M, prototype Glatz, and prototype Wolf seats were tested at several impact orientations including Combined Vertical, Pure Vertical and Combined Horizontal, and at different acceleration and energy levels using small female and large male manikins. Biodynamic data were compared to injury criteria recommended by the Army Full Spectrum Crashworthiness (FSC) Report (2011). Data were also compared to Eiband and operational mishap data. The testing and data analysis methodology developed during the program can be used to baseline and compare seats within a given aircraft platform or across different aircraft platforms. Combining quantitative injury criteria measures, such as those outlined within the FSC, along with laboratory and operational mishap data, demonstrate that new seats and seat technology can be quickly and inexpensively tested either singly or in a comparative evaluation, independent of aircraft platforms.
