This paper briefly describes a portion of a joint multi-year research and development program between McDonnell Douglas Technologies Incorporated (MDTI) and New Aircraft and Missile Products (NAMP), both members of the McDonnell Douglas Aerospace-East (MDA-E) team. This ongoing program evolved from advanced radome development to flight validation of full-scale hardware, including electrical and structural proof test verification, in just two and a half years. This paper focuses on the structural analysis and test effort leading to flight demonstration of an advanced F-15 broadband nose radome. The broadband nose radome is a sandwich structure composed of cyanate ester syntactic cores with quartz/cyanate ester skins transitioning to a solid graphite/cyanate ester attachment region. This configuration represents a significant material, design and manufacturing advancement over the F-15 production filament wound, solid laminate glass/epoxy radome. The F-15 broadband nose radome successfully passed the structural proof test, passed pre- and post-deformation due to the proof test.
