The Naval Ship Research and Development Center made ship motion/aircraft event correlation measurements on board the Interim Sea Control Ship (USS GUAM, LPH-9) during various deployments in 1971, 1972, and 1973. The primary objectives of these measurements were to collect and define ship motions which limit aircraft takeoffs and recoveries and to evaluate the effectiveness of GUAM's anti-roll tank. While emphasis is placed on the takeoff and recovery states as observed for the British VSTOL Harrier, or AVB, significant comments, based on the analysis of observed and recorded data, are presented for other stages in the aircraft operational cycle. Several analysis methods are employed to define aircraft operation limiting ship motions, the most critical ship motion or combination thereof that interfere with aircraft operations, and the operational procedures relating to ship motions developed during the Interim Sea Control Ship deployments.
