A throttle/energy management (T/EM) concept for fuel, range, time optimization was extended by application to the Air Force Digital Avionics Information System (DAIS). The current state-of-technology of automatic throttles was reviewed, considering features applicable to a T/EM system. The functional requirements of a T/EM system for fighter aircraft were defined, based on analysis of the aircraft characteristics and flight control system of the Advanced Development Program 680J configured F-4. Computational algorithms and control laws were developed by digital simulation. The T/EM system uses stored data for a limited set of optimal acceleration, dash and descent segments, from which the control commands and performance for a specific mission would be calculated.
