This paper discusses the terminal area guidance and terrain following system developed for the USAF HH-60A Night Hawk Search and Rescue Helicopter. A Multi-Mode Radar and three-cue Flight Path Vector Director provide a terrain following capability at all airspeeds, allowing a decelerating approach to a hover over varying terrain to a designated point. Properties of the terrain following design are discussed. Simulation results using the NASA Ames piloted Vertical Motion Simulator are presented.
