This report addresses the tasks required to determine whether or not a Crash-Survivable Flight Data Recording (CSFDR) System which meets the critical performance requirements and cost constraints dictated by the attack/fighter/trainer (A/F/T) application, can be defined with current avionics technology for a volume production program. The first task addressed is that of determining the technical requirements. Following this, the tasks required to formulate the well-defined technical approach are addressed. These tasks include studies relative to standardization, expanded recording, data security, required readout equipment, and future aircraft applications. Special emphasis is given to potential memory technologies, data processing/compression techniques, and required software/firmware for the CSFDR system. Following these technical areas of study, the economic areas of life cycle costs (LCC) and cost/benefit are analyzed. The recommendation is to continue work in the CSFDR area. (Author)
