Abstract:

The HELHAT 2 flight test compared the target detection capability of helicopter scout crews and single observers flying in an OH-58 Kiowa at above the ground levels of 80 to 300 feet. An ancillary test employing six crews, gave some information on the target detection capability of scout crews in the nap-of-the-earth flight reign, 1 to 30 feet. Author
