The Advanced Fighter Technology Integration (AFTI)/F-16 Automated Maneuvering Attack System (AMAS) is in developmental flight testing at the Air Force Flight Test Center (AFFTC), Edwards Air Force Base, California. AMAS testing commenced in September 1984, with one hundred test sorties totaling 158.8 fight hours flown at the time of this interim report. The flight tests are being conducted by the AFTI/F-16 Joint Test Force, which is comprised of AFFTC, NASA-Ames Dryden, and General Dynamics personnel. The overall thrust of the developmental flight test program is to develop automated guidance and control systems for air-to-ground and air-to-air weapon delivery. The developmental test bed is an NF16-S/N 75-750 which has been modified with an asynchronous digital flight control system, dual avionics multiplex buses, an advanced forward looking infrared sensor-laser ranger sensor, integrated fire/flight control software, advanced cockpit displays/interfaces, and modified core MSIP avionics. This paper will present interim flight test results pertaining to the AMAS development.
