Abstract:

The Joint Multi-Role Rotorcraft Technology Demonstrator JMR TD is intended to demonstrate technologies for a family of rotorcraft that could eventually replace an entire fleet of helicopters. During the JMR TD effort, multiple rotorcraft configurations are being analyzed for their performance and mission effectiveness across a joint set of roles and operations. One anticipated outcome of the JMR TD effort is the identification of capability gaps and the impact that technologies can have on closing the gaps. In order to realize this outcome, there is a need for quantitative assessment of technology impact on rotorcraft capabilities.
