This report presents results of a study by the Rockwell International Corporation for the NASA Ames Research Center and the Naval Air Systems Command of promising Navy lift-cruise fan V/STOL aircraft for the 1980-1985 time period. The purpose of the study was to identify the likely technical and operating characteristics and technology requirements for the ultimate development of this type aircraft. The study focused on identifying aircraft individually optimized to perform the anti-submarine warfare, carrier onboard delivery, combat search and rescue, surveillance and surface attack missions, and a multi-purpose aircraft concept capable of performing all five missions at minimum total program cost. The configuration features the use of two 1.3 fan pressure ratio, single stage lift-cruise fans and three current design J97 gas generators with a high mounted high aspect ratio wing with winglets. The design missions can be performed at takeoff weights ranging from approximately 32,000 to 39,000 pounds. Top speed is 0.80 Mach number at sea level and 0.885 at altitude, Advanced composite structural technology and advanced subsystem concepts are employed. One basic fuselage design, with alternate bolt-in floor structures, meets all the mission requirements.
