The AFTI/F-16 Advanced Development Program is developing and integrating advanced technologies, that will improve fighter lethality and survivability. Improved mission capabilities are achieved through integration of task-tailored, digital flight controls, fire control, attack sensors weapon interfaces, mission avionics and associated controls and displays into an Automated Maneuvering Attack System (AMAS). The core building block was achieved in the Phase I - Digital Flight Control System (DFCS) development, which emphasized fault-tolerant, inner-loop flight path control, avionics integration and cockpit interfaces. Phase II - Automated Maneuvering Attack System development expands the baseline systems in conjunction with a new FLIR-LASER Sensor/Tracker to demonstrate significant advancements in combat automation technology. This paper summarizes the Phase II AMAS configuration development and integration with emphasis on mechanization concepts, design rationale, and critical system-integration considerations.
