Topic CX-1 (e, f)
Title: Procurement of Blackhole Long Range Attack Craft and/or Quasar Interceptor units, Foreign Partnership Agreement
Contract Negotiator: Xu Shen, Foreign Sales Manager - Novatec, Aeronautics Division air/wire-com:939333-292292-238392 ext. 429
The Intracircumcordei model CX-1E - BLACKHOLE and CX-1F - Quasar is the main airforce component of ICCD. It is made for export by NOVATEC Aeronautics on an as capable contract basis. This aircraft is the 'most hightech' and specialized craft that is able to be released without national security violations.
It can be deployed in interception, or fast attack a/s/l depending on payload. The stealth technologies utilize EM energy transferance and a variety of tweaks, specialized to make this craft one of a kind and reliable. Very rarely can you find an aircraft capable of leaving the atmosphere, and reentering as well as underwater operation. With underwater to surface / air capacity both in payload and operation.
THE CX-1d emphasizes Reliability, Maintainability & Testability in all it's operational requirements. There is indepth testing both inflight and by way of autoation and simulator and situational analysis to determine overall Reliability Mean Times Between Failures (MTBF) failsafe tested by regular reliability testing to validate the specification target MTBF.
The CX-1E in it's operations as ICCD premier atmospheric stealth fighter in good economic sense strives to keep Life Cycle Costs (LCC) low by insuring that compontents are replacable and can be produced from tooled minifactories and allow novel rework to return damaged parts to functional serviceability. With any main sales contract we can include commonly stressed components manufacturing and repair methods at no additional prices. We can even be hired to set up these components tooling and minifactories or train your personnel to do this, in as little as 6 months, for a slight fee, unless you opt for a large production contract in which case we will do it for no additional charge. These maitence options will be a major cost savings from reduced aircraft maintenance costs (23% of total cost of ownership) in it's operational upkeep lifespan.
These aircraft are not your typical fill em' and fly em' aircraft they are high specialized mobile sensor and weapons platforms capable of inficting massive death and destruction. Proper knowledge of maitenence is a must for long term operations and maintaining their true lifespan of 20+ years of occasional use. Flight hours may vary depending on type of use.
In addition to being a missle bearing and plasma sheen thrusting aircraft the CX-1 is able to act as a steath reconisance craft, typically this role is provibed by the CX-1E as it has a longer flight lifespan.
Aerodynamic performance is deatly capable, able to withstand 8+ g's of pressure, sustain mach 13 for an extended duration, take dive impact into water at less than the speed of sound without breakup. The air tunnels and cussions allow for the craft to lift itself straight up during flight and the interceptor model is capable of vectored thrust to sling shot itself in at od thrust angles. The SMART skin allows optimal pressure, humity, and temperature operatoinal configurations and that is just some of the capabites of the Blackhole(LONG range) and Quasar (Short Range interceptor)
The quasar is deathly manoeuvrable capable of vectored thrust, spin out and computer programed high risk manuvoers including highspeed pancaking either forward or reverse via either front or rear bottom mounted thrusters. Although the G-forces can be extreme in unmanned flight this can occur with less ease as no stress is placed on the pilot.
Secure Lift made posible by superior ceramic composite able to withstand heavy pressure, which also allows it to do submersible operations.
nanoscreens can allow the wings to be pourous, cross configured with inbuit sensors within the ceramic structure and aided by computer flight assitance to maxmize lift operations. These 'tubeuels vary depending on the wind direction and force. to maximize or if required reduce the area of attack /AOA/ .AOA threshhold degrees can be set at defaults or exceeded if required for some manovers. This also assists in take offs and especially landings. This varies depending on teh intelligent skin which minutely shrinks or expands, also effected by weather and some other minor factors which as ionization/energy feilds. Both external and produced by the craft as a stealth mechanism. If there is low temperature plasma coating surfaces or heat from reentry or otherwise the computer will compensate. Cyrofluids can aslo be dispersed through these tunnels to cool the craft reduce heat signature if required, through pressurized systems pumps and valves.
Drag is reduced by ionization feids (electronoal EM repulsion) in 'feild' mostly frong surface centered during stealth operations this feild works 'harmouniously with stealth systems to only be active when not creating a measurable energy dignatire. This system effectively 'creates' a stream of electrons. In actual interception,engagement situations this can assist in peaking spead or assisting in manovers that drag would impair to increase performance.
Induced drag - this can temporarily be induced by 'weaving' causing contact air to disipate. however the opposite effect occurs after the 'weave' that is drag is momentarily increased. Normally the weave is 'up' at the start of an operation.
Skin friction is reduced drastically via a number of manufacturing techniques, materials and the fact that there are no external weapons or sensor mounts.
Wave drag can be directed 'to cushion the craft rather then push the craft' allowing extra trust effectively 'riding the soundwave' rather then being held by the soundwave. Athough very dangerous and causing wear on the aircraft, it is a 'sound vortex and pulls in nearby objects be they planes or birds or even ammunition or missles. This is only posible at jet/supersonic speed.
Yaw, pitch and roll unlike most aircraft, using the VSTOL foot pedals or other control systems dramatic displays of arial capability can be performed by skilled pilots. These manouvers however can take some getting use to, and g forces can be extreme for some, but the pilot chamber is aided by joint and internal organ sheilds and pressurizers. Experience reverse and 0 gravity like never before. Note some manovers may be lethal if underprotected, consult health and safety manuals for adviced human maximals. Remember to take pictures. The interceptor is much more capable then the long range variant as the long range CX-1E is not designed for 'acrobatic aeronautics. due to it's longer nose.
Stalling - induced stall and vstol booster thursts for stall recovery.
Air speed stall indicator In case of a severe stall, a 180 deg roll position may recover, if unable to use thrust dynamics to naturally come out of it.If you do not you may incur negative G forces. In order to recover from stall, you need sufficient altitude since you are trading altitude for airspeed. Don't put yourself in a stall situation if you don't have sufficient altitude unless you can use your lower thrust, but even then it is very dangerous.
If you pull up too quickly after performing a manover you may find yourself stalling out again.
Fuel usage
afterburner (heat dump) is posible, it raises the heat signature of the tail and burns fuel at more than double the normal rate but gives a thrust boost.
fuel usage will readout at preset interval in non combat situations or in combat situations at near critical levels it is also double redundantly displayed.
The CX-1 is tested and retested for reliability a long airframe life to create greater economic service life while keeping down both Cost and Weight.
Readiness of the aircraft comes in a variety of different modes, the fastest deployed version is via the XING CLASS SLINGSHOT FLIGHT DECKS. these same systems can be adapted for ground use. In seconds these craft can launch via secure remote signal with no requirement to have pilots, this requires smart keys to be left in vehicles. This method is used for a number of 'antiair interception roles' in ICCD as an alternative to smart incertception missles for critical roles.
The craft can be deployed in a number of combat roles and if kept ready is ready to respond to combat operations on a moments notice or even based upon preauthorized launch scenarios.
Survivability, not a a single CX-1 employed by the Intracircumcordei Security Forces has been taken out in combat duties from enemy fire to date.
The stealth design of this aircraft drastically reduces observability, the EM redistributors heat masking, smoke collection and skin lightwaveform translation camosystem renders the craft visiaully difficult to detect. The sound at high speeds can be a dead give away however at low speeds the lowspeed engine operates at reduced noise for a hum.
Smart weapons and an intelligent aircraft assist in weapons accuracy rendering the craft largely immune to fault based upon known physical - environmental miscaculation.
Buffeting such as bird strike or environmental effects are drastically reduced, standard operation at hypersonic models is posible via a hard yet elastic skin. When operating underway small and medium sized fish cause little harm at max speed of between 40 and 60 miles/hour. Large fish such as whales and sharks may cause some internal disruption and potential issues. Salt water etc.. needs to be cleanses by air presurization before transition of subsurface to air operation but for the most part is 'burned off'
vibration control is increased by both an intelligent skin and frame and by onboard flight control.
Field repairs are generally not advised unless at a properly equiped facility due to the very high technology nature of the craft, regular aircraft maitenance just won't cut it. NOVATEC with any contract or FPA is willing to make accessable a mechanicle maitenance suite specifically for the CX-1 which is interoperable with other ICCD security forces standard operating equipment, while still being able to handle and most other equipment.
Aircraft Engines are state of the art and unique to the CX-1 series.
Fuels used are a lH2lO2 form.
Lubricants and cryo fluids are of a variety of hitechnology makeup. Export Agreements to states applicable to FPA or purchasing contract can be jointly signed on a nonfixed rate basis or a prenegotiated termed fixed rate.
Optics & Electronics are optimized for low heat high capacity.
Prevention of Pollution - the actual fuel of the aircraft is Hydrogen oxygen burnign mixture and has an extremely low pollution causation due to high efficiency burning and the lack of carbon as many organic fuels might have. All ICCD production sites utilize 'waste recycling systems' to reharness chemical wastes for seperation and reuse among the various industires in ICCD. NOVATEC is required by ICCD ESSI to conform to these standards in other localities for the purpose of their rights to be the manufacturer of the craft to foreign parties. .
The is ample space in the cockpit for torso movement headmovement and for the pilot to stretch their legs even posible through mechanical hardened assistance for optional flight position modes, as is required by some manovers. Being strapped into the seat assists in maintaining contrl during alternativng G movements.
Chaff and Flares laser scattering, and EMP bursts allow for mudding of potential enemy missle strikes. The shiva system can send out a ball to 'eat up' incoming gun fire, by directional firing. forward or aft.
The Explosive capacity of this craft is primarily done by it's armarment, however, in a snap the craft can be tunred intoa flying intelligent missle.
Energy Generation & Storage overlapping storage rings as sources of initial particles. The high efficiency of this method is provided by using, in collisions, the appropriate ions and the absence of losses in the medium due to in-flight production. The yields of the positronium, protonium, antihydrogen and ions of the antiprotonic helium isoelectronic.
Effectively 'freeflaoting electron stripping via a charged state feild, in positive ionization the electroconduction is however stronger at the electronic component stage and is then focused and redistributed through the nanocircuitry.
Air pressure passing through the AOA and coolant /heat distrobution tunnels assist in wind power energy generation. safer, more secure, efficient, and environmentally friendly air transportation system. evolutionary propulsion systems that are intelligent, whisper quiet, structurally integral to the vehicles, and clean and lean with near-zero emissions.
mission range - the interceptor has a range of around 1500 km where as the long range craft has a range of arond 5000 km, this can vary depending on fuel economy and 'glide'. Underwater operations can see the craft fuel economy drop due to heavier fuel to distance ratio of underwater operation. This in part can be copensated by use of internal electrolysis generation of oxygen and hydrogen from water, but the catch being that more energy is generated in air then in water thus the electroylsis is better for use upon emergence in water. after having a high battery level but intending to resurface to regenerate some lost water. Operating the craft in an out of water can increase distance however it will be more taxing on the coolant systems..
The aircraft is capable of cruise / glide in case of stall however altitude will lower this is aided by the AOA internal air direction to have lower tunnels act as a 'parachute' that is having the tunnels from side angles exert pressure on the downward tunnels to have direct air cussioning, which can is used for lift functions. However, the speed of the aircraft with gradually reduce.
The aircraft is designed for wieght balancing of payloads for 'optimal use' at balanced loads. Although still operational if armarment is disproprotionatly fired. The computer navagation system will kick in and compensate for flight balancing and thruster positioning.
aircraft cruise drag is reduced by use of the nanotunneling and airflight design and aerodynamic surfaces.
weapon drag is all but removed by internalization and aerodynamic formation of external surfaces.
structural weight is balanced for 'structural resistance' along with flight maximization, alloys and composits are the pirpary force while actual structure and kinetic force realignment and break stress channel result in critical ammounts of extra stress firing off small pelets rathr than breaking aircraft up, this can be turned off or on
subsystem weight it kept lower than older model aircraft by implementing nanocirucitry and in general newer technology. the internalization of some combonents reduce surface redundancy lowering weighting even more. Since many systems are shilded some protections are not required to be double redundant.
optimal control gains are seen via the computer flight system, and greater catering of human pilots.
aircraft systems are keyed to have maximal capcitzation of a box of no damage aircraft with supior speed and stealth.
flight controls and control surfaces use not only pixelation but also projection. The controls are more than just nose /thrust position but itegrate tunneling controls and underbelly vstol thrusters. these are implemented via foot and arm control with a variety of fight options, such as voice, keyed, or other options.
manufacture and assembly is done at high technology design centers and assembled under the highest level of security, a variety of cost saving and performance enhancing methods have been implemented at every design research development prototyping modifiaction production and shipping stage.
the aircraft is future modifiable to a degree, but it is not advisable to do independant modifications unless you know the function. Contractors may make request for a changeup in systems for their production yeild; no gaurenties can be made to the modifiability or performance of a craft so modified.
The maintenance procedures of the cx-1 series is very demanding. The aircraft should not be flown with any damage if it is to perform without performance loss or even health risk. Aircraft should have atleast 1 hour of inspection a day, as is standard in ICCD and inspection and diagnostic tools and software are provided with any order of 50 or more aircraft or can be purchased independantly. A simple datachip provides all the information on the CX-1 as released by NOVATEC for use and pilot training. This information is by default int he information system of the computer but the 'craft information package comes with a wide host of usable and promotional material.
Cost varies upon component pricing.
The aircraft is, in good maitenance, set to outlive its required design life span of 20 years. Flight hours and use can effect lifespan either lengthening or shortening lifespan.
all weighting on the aircraft is used by structural offset, event, and load validation analysis this information is fed into the computer system for a variety of uses.
aeronautical and space systems, the CX-1e and CX-1f are airtight with flight shielding from a number of space based threats such as nonatmospheric heat and cosmic radiation. The craft is also presure resistant to depth of over a kilometer ?
Landing Gear the aircraft has landing 'rollers' for distributed load on touchdown, the main rear and front are extrareinforced for initial and final impacts. The gears can also ferry the craft onground, and the cx-1 can maintain a road driving speed if it has the wingspan clearance. Fast Chemical Vapour / Infiltration (CVI) for brakes
Flight Controls & Hydraulics are integrated with the computer system with sensors to report information on the status of the systems. The hydraulics are strong enough to allow for cussion on landing. Wheels & Brakes are made of impact resistant alloy and the breaking system utilizes energy field and physical frictive also lower thrusters can be 'counter pressure' to apply extra frontal directed thurst for quick stopping
There are two model types of this basic design. The long range stealth fighter/bomber version and the short range interceptor. Generally the long range version is 'higher powered' but is not a manoverable. The long range version also is also more resource intensive.
All major sensors and computing systems are removable but integration is size dependant and internal bus / dependant. The bus is laregly located within the airframe, theoretically it could be taken out but it would probably be more costly then making a new airframe/shell. To take abard the access components requires specialized equipment and factory default codes, otherwise inbuilt protection scemes may 'fry' or corrupt the system data..

ENGINE
DAUL RAMSCOOP - SCRAMJET ENGINE with PDE technology
PDE engines use electronic ignition that forces a powerful shock wave down the exhaust tube. The shock wave is so strong that some of it actually bursts out of the front air intake, creating a donut like smoke ring around the exhaust chamber.
COOLING- high heat endothermic fuels for long range liquid cooled engine cooling
Range: 1000/5000+ kilometers / not designed for area refueling but if required an addon can be attached to aircraft but reduces stealth, mod can be removed by properly equiped refueler.hydrogen fuelled Scamjet backupboosters – to propel craft at MACH 7 30 second pulses. Faster shorter durations can also be done up to mach13. mach 8 25 seconds mach 9 20 seconds mach 10 15 seconds mach 11 10 seconds mach 12 5 seconds mach 13 <1 second Must already be at mach 5 to engage booster.
it is a CLEAN engine, the only emmission is H2O this H20 is transferred into the hover water supply
no moving parts means very easy to service at proper facility
In scramjet mode Operational gains of scramjets over conventional ramjet and rocket missile systems are: - greater rocket efficiency (by a factor of 3-10)- increased cruise range (by a factor of 2)- reduced response time (Mach 8 -1200km in 15 mins.) Engaging the Ramscoop in the atmosphere reduces maximum speed to Mach 2; Mach 3 can be maintaining for two hours, or Mach 5 for 10 minutes. use booster to Mach 3-4, when air breathing engine would operate in subsonic ramjet mode. As vehicle accelerates to Mach 5-6, transition to supersonic (scramjet) combustion occurs smoothly for Mach 7-8 cruise atmosphere up to about Mach 15 without having to carry heavy oxygen(not designed for flight above mach 13, risking engine overheat(melt siezing) it could maybe pull it off for a second or so)
turbofan Ramscoop hybrids - extended range + in atmosphere extreme and sudden de-acceleration may be done. used to drop back, reversing positions with a pursuing fighter and putting one's self in a prime position to fire greater targeting. with 360 degree thrust vectoring from +60 degrees through -60 degrees. thermal gel coating,.
directed magnetic fields (used in the stealth system can be primed to interfere with incoming magnetically charged objects); There is a 5% chance that an incoming missile(Unless made of purely non-magnetic materials), particle cannon/plasma shot, rail gun shot, or gun shot (Unless made of purely non-magnetic materials) will be deflected by the fields when activated in the atmosphere. Rail guns and guns that fire bursts to do damage will have that damage reduced by 5%.
ENDOTHERMIC FUEL:LH2/LO2 High heat-sink (endothermic) hydrocarbon fuels decompose to give low molecular weight hydrocarbon gases and hydrogen. Endothermic fuel permits active cooling of components to higher temperatures than conventional hydrocarbon fuels: Exhaust itself from is filtered out by way of catalyst and burn filter so that trace signature is reduced. endothermic fuels to provide regenerative cooling.
Sensors to measure service stresses and temperatures in engine components with the craft plugged into a virtual command center so that multiple plausible object interaction can be predicted by the computer system. When running in safe mode, the AI system will respond to insure ongoing mission operation success, like a game of chess.fast pased lasers in the preexuast exahust valves measure the composition of the exhaust and do corrective ionization and mixing.EXHAUST Smoke Contrails - Burns clean and efficeint fuel, filters of fuel prior to input and prior to injection or streaming are filtered and hard deposit. Uses cone system as to have ionization at flame point to attrack carbon particles to ionized board. features Active Frequency Damping (AFD) and comparable active noise control systems. Visual signature is reduced through a chloro-flurosulphonic acid that is injected into the exhaust gases of the powerplant, eliminating engine vapor contrails.- engines take advantage of higher temperature materials
V/STOL Capabilities: can taking off and land, fully loaded, by using Thrusters. It is capable of operating at any speed and hovering on thrusters as well; However, the Thrusters will overheat if water or coolant supply to cool engine is used up
Water can be collected when operating’ ‘underwater to be electrolysized to refuel the oxygen and hydrogen storage tanks or purfied and stored for use with the VTOL coolants. System can 'rain water' if required or produce a steam feild (which can be used to alter heat signature placements. (a few gallon) an alternative fuel could be used but general water is stored for dispersal as a coolant during water lifts. --------------------------------------
Space: THIS MODEL IS NOT DESIGNED FOR SPACE Flight but can use thrusters to manover in space. NOTE THE CX-S-1G (is modeled for space flight via an XEON HYBRID PROPULSION ENGINE but the craft is much larger and not designed as a fighter interceptor)
Combustion Technology
Shock wave interactions in supersonic combustion define the supercritical stability margins. Long isolator ducts separate intake exit flow from the influence of combustor pressure rise
Active & Passive Cooling Passive thermal protection (e.g. ablative materials high temperature ceramics and coated C/C) are adequate for typical flight times below Mach 5 Or short durations at Mach 6.5 (10 to 20 minutes). Active cooling (combustors and parts of exhaust nozzles) for >Mach 6.5 for more than 5 mins.
Ceramic composite: lightweight, high temperature, high strength oxidation resistant composite materials, that allows nano thermo diffusion throughout the entire structure reuducing the heat signature of the craft and allowing faster cooling. Conduites act as pathways from highheat to lowheat areas in a pattern as to make operational even distribution and peak cooling. Damage Tolerant material- composite materials, particularly carbon fibre reinforced plastics (CFRP) allowing a reduced number of parts compared to metallic designs. Titanium alloys, intermetallics and composites- Advanced refractory metals and alloys Intermetallics and intermetallic composites reinforced with ceramic fibres - Ceramic & C/C composites with better oxidation resistance + protective coatings - lightweight thermal insulation plus processing for structures with complex cooling passages - high thermal conductivity materials and coatings that can survive contact with cooling fuel (e.g. copper-based alloys and composites). Coatings and surface modification treatments for increased protection against environmental attack, abrasive wear, fretting fatigue etc. Thermal barrier coatings (tbcs) allow static and rotating turbine components to operate at 150oC higher temperatures than uncoated materials Corrosion and stress corrosion resistant ultra high strength steels
percision flow performance of flow system components such as valves, check valves, pressure regulators, flow meters, cavitating venturis, and propellant run tanks. interaction between cryogenic fluid flow and immersed sensors that predicts the dynamic load on the sensors, frequency spectrum, heat transfer, and effect on the flow field, are needed.
* Smart system components (control valves, regulators, and relief valves) that provide real-time closed-loop control, component configuration, automated operation, and component health. Components must be able to operate in cryogenic temperatures (as low as 160R for LOX and 34R for LH2 ) under high pressure (up to 15,000 psi) high flow rate conditions (2000 lb/s - 82 ft/s for LOX, 500 lb/sec - 300 ft/s for LH2 ). Components must be able to operate in the elevated temperatures associated with a rocket engine testing environment. Response time must be on the order of a few milliseconds to the sub-milliseconds.
Improved long-life, liquid oxygen compatible seal technology. Materials and designs suitable for oxygen service at pressures up to 10,000 psi. Both cryogenic and elevated temperature candidate materials and designs are of interest. Typical temperature ranges will be either -320°F to 100°F, or -40°F to 300°F. Seal designs may include both dynamic and static use. Plastic, metal, or electrometric materials, or combinations thereof, are of particular interest.
Phenomenology, modeling, sensors, and instrumentation for prediction, characterization, and measurement of rocket engine combustion instability. Sensor systems should have bandwidth capabilities in excess of 100 kHz. Emphasis is on development of optical-based sensor systems that will be nonintrusive in the test article hardware or plume.
Rugged, high accuracy (0.2%), fast response temperature measuring sensors and instrumentation for very high pressure, high flow rate cryogenic piping systems. Temperature sensors must be able to measure cryogenic temperatures of fluids (as low as 160R for LOX and 34R for LH2) under high pressure (up to 15,000 psi), high flow rate conditions (2000 lb/s - 82 ft/s for LOX, 500 lb/s - 300 ft/s for LH2). Response time must be on the order of a few milliseconds to the sub-milliseconds.
SENSORS
Innovative, nonintrusive sensors for measuring flow rate, temperature, pressure, rocket engine plume constituents, and effluent gas detection. Sensors do not physically intrude into the measurement space. sub-millisecond response . Temperature sensors measure cryogenic temperatures of fluids (min 160R for LOX and 34R for LH2) under high pressure (up to 15,000 psi), high flow rate conditions (2000 lb/s - 82 ft/s for LOX, 500 lb/s - 300 ft/s for LH2). Flow rate sensors have a range of up to 2000 lb/s (82 ft/sec) for LOX and 500 lb/sec (300 ft/s) for LH2. Pressure sensors have a range up to 15,000 psi.

SPARTAN (SPECIAL PROBABILITY ANALYSIS RESPONSE TACTICAL ANDROID NETWORK)
The aircraft itself is a large computer with distributed processors for heat reduction. Quasi-Delay Insensitive integrated circuits, which is a robust, asynchronous circuit that provides several major benefits as compared to traditional versions (circuits governed by an internal clock); these include early completion of circuits when it is known that the inputs which have not yet arrived are irrelevant, lower power consumption because transistors do not work unless performing useful computations, superior modularity and composability, adaptable circuit speed based on temperature and voltage conditions (synchronous chips are locked in at optimal clock speed for worst-case conditions), easier manufacturing processes due to lack of transistor-to-transistor variability, and less produced Electro-Magnetic Interference (Synchronous circuits create enormous amounts of EMI at frequency bands near clock frequencies). The entire avionics suite is driven by a Central Integrated Processor [CIP], which is a supercomputer built into the airframe. Because the integrated circuits operate under Quasi-Delay Insensitive logic, signals and instructions are processed near-instantaeneously, without consideration for the restraints of a clock circuit Fly-By-Light scheme nm fiber-optic cables just nanometers thick. improved signal transfer speed that light offers. renders the aircraft virtually immune to electro-magnetic interference. The system binds all of the aeroelastic control surfaces and canards together, giving the pilot an aircraft capable of outmanuvering virtually any aircraft in the world. Actuators actuation materials (piezoelectric and electrostrictive) with increase strain capability Shape memory alloys with high bandwidth response time and constitutive behaviour Design power conditioning and switching minimise local heat loads to avoid thermal damage of the host material. embeded electronics to support of intelligent functions on sensors. these small little components are comparible to a 200+ MHz PC with approximately 32+ MB of RAM and similar non-volatile storage, analog input/output (I/O) (at least two of each, with programmable amplification and anti-aliasing filters, plus automatic calibration) digital I/O (at least eight), communication port for Ethernet bus protocol (one high speed and one low speed), support for C programming (or other high level language), and a development kit for a PC. Where once you thought ' handheld' now think finger held or smaller. Technology such as this will revolutionize the world. The key int eh aircraft system is to integrate the computer distorubtion system inside the ceramic composition of the aircraft layers. Think 'clusters' of sharable microcomponents so that the craft uses localized power. If part of the pathway is broken other portions will pick up the slack as long as there is a pathway for datatransfer.

Topic CX-1 (e, f)
Title: Procurement of Blackhole Long Range Attack Craft and/or Quasar Interceptor units, Foreign Partnership Agreement
Contract Negotiator: Xu Shen, Foreign Sales Manager - Novatec, Aeronautics Division air/wire-com:939333-292292-238392 ext. 429
The Intracircumcordei model CX-1E - BLACKHOLE and CX-1F - Quasar is the main airforce component of ICCD. It is made for export by NOVATEC Aeronautics on an as capable contract basis. This aircraft is the 'most hightech' and specialized craft that is able to be released without national security violations.
It can be deployed in interception, or fast attack a/s/l depending on payload. The stealth technologies utilize EM energy transferance and a variety of tweaks, specialized to make this craft one of a kind and reliable. Very rarely can you find an aircraft capable of leaving the atmosphere, and reentering as well as underwater operation. With underwater to surface / air capacity both in payload and operation.
THE CX-1d emphasizes Reliability, Maintainability & Testability in all it's operational requirements. There is indepth testing both inflight and by way of autoation and simulator and situational analysis to determine overall Reliability Mean Times Between Failures (MTBF) failsafe tested by regular reliability testing to validate the specification target MTBF.
The CX-1E in it's operations as ICCD premier atmospheric stealth fighter in good economic sense strives to keep Life Cycle Costs (LCC) low by insuring that compontents are replacable and can be produced from tooled minifactories and allow novel rework to return damaged parts to functional serviceability. With any main sales contract we can include commonly stressed components manufacturing and repair methods at no additional prices. We can even be hired to set up these components tooling and minifactories or train your personnel to do this, in as little as 6 months, for a slight fee, unless you opt for a large production contract in which case we will do it for no additional charge. These maitence options will be a major cost savings from reduced aircraft maintenance costs (23% of total cost of ownership) in it's operational upkeep lifespan.
These aircraft are not your typical fill em' and fly em' aircraft they are high specialized mobile sensor and weapons platforms capable of inficting massive death and destruction. Proper knowledge of maitenence is a must for long term operations and maintaining their true lifespan of 20+ years of occasional use. Flight hours may vary depending on type of use.
In addition to being a missle bearing and plasma sheen thrusting aircraft the CX-1 is able to act as a steath reconisance craft, typically this role is provibed by the CX-1E as it has a longer flight lifespan.
Aerodynamic performance is deatly capable, able to withstand 8+ g's of pressure, sustain mach 13 for an extended duration, take dive impact into water at less than the speed of sound without breakup. The air tunnels and cussions allow for the craft to lift itself straight up during flight and the interceptor model is capable of vectored thrust to sling shot itself in at od thrust angles. The SMART skin allows optimal pressure, humity, and temperature operatoinal configurations and that is just some of the capabites of the Blackhole(LONG range) and Quasar (Short Range interceptor)
The quasar is deathly manoeuvrable capable of vectored thrust, spin out and computer programed high risk manuvoers including highspeed pancaking either forward or reverse via either front or rear bottom mounted thrusters. Although the G-forces can be extreme in unmanned flight this can occur with less ease as no stress is placed on the pilot.
Secure Lift made posible by superior ceramic composite able to withstand heavy pressure, which also allows it to do submersible operations.
nanoscreens can allow the wings to be pourous, cross configured with inbuit sensors within the ceramic structure and aided by computer flight assitance to maxmize lift operations. These 'tubeuels vary depending on the wind direction and force. to maximize or if required reduce the area of attack /AOA/ .AOA threshhold degrees can be set at defaults or exceeded if required for some manovers. This also assists in take offs and especially landings. This varies depending on teh intelligent skin which minutely shrinks or expands, also effected by weather and some other minor factors which as ionization/energy feilds. Both external and produced by the craft as a stealth mechanism. If there is low temperature plasma coating surfaces or heat from reentry or otherwise the computer will compensate. Cyrofluids can aslo be dispersed through these tunnels to cool the craft reduce heat signature if required, through pressurized systems pumps and valves.
Drag is reduced by ionization feids (electronoal EM repulsion) in 'feild' mostly frong surface centered during stealth operations this feild works 'harmouniously with stealth systems to only be active when not creating a measurable energy dignatire. This system effectively 'creates' a stream of electrons. In actual interception,engagement situations this can assist in peaking spead or assisting in manovers that drag would impair to increase performance.
Induced drag - this can temporarily be induced by 'weaving' causing contact air to disipate. however the opposite effect occurs after the 'weave' that is drag is momentarily increased. Normally the weave is 'up' at the start of an operation.
Skin friction is reduced drastically via a number of manufacturing techniques, materials and the fact that there are no external weapons or sensor mounts.
Wave drag can be directed 'to cushion the craft rather then push the craft' allowing extra trust effectively 'riding the soundwave' rather then being held by the soundwave. Athough very dangerous and causing wear on the aircraft, it is a 'sound vortex and pulls in nearby objects be they planes or birds or even ammunition or missles. This is only posible at jet/supersonic speed.
Yaw, pitch and roll unlike most aircraft, using the VSTOL foot pedals or other control systems dramatic displays of arial capability can be performed by skilled pilots. These manouvers however can take some getting use to, and g forces can be extreme for some, but the pilot chamber is aided by joint and internal organ sheilds and pressurizers. Experience reverse and 0 gravity like never before. Note some manovers may be lethal if underprotected, consult health and safety manuals for adviced human maximals. Remember to take pictures. The interceptor is much more capable then the long range variant as the long range CX-1E is not designed for 'acrobatic aeronautics. due to it's longer nose.
Stalling - induced stall and vstol booster thursts for stall recovery.
Air speed stall indicator In case of a severe stall, a 180 deg roll position may recover, if unable to use thrust dynamics to naturally come out of it.If you do not you may incur negative G forces. In order to recover from stall, you need sufficient altitude since you are trading altitude for airspeed. Don't put yourself in a stall situation if you don't have sufficient altitude unless you can use your lower thrust, but even then it is very dangerous.
If you pull up too quickly after performing a manover you may find yourself stalling out again.
Fuel usage
afterburner (heat dump) is posible, it raises the heat signature of the tail and burns fuel at more than double the normal rate but gives a thrust boost.
fuel usage will readout at preset interval in non combat situations or in combat situations at near critical levels it is also double redundantly displayed.
The CX-1 is tested and retested for reliability a long airframe life to create greater economic service life while keeping down both Cost and Weight.
Readiness of the aircraft comes in a variety of different modes, the fastest deployed version is via the XING CLASS SLINGSHOT FLIGHT DECKS. these same systems can be adapted for ground use. In seconds these craft can launch via secure remote signal with no requirement to have pilots, this requires smart keys to be left in vehicles. This method is used for a number of 'antiair interception roles' in ICCD as an alternative to smart incertception missles for critical roles.
The craft can be deployed in a number of combat roles and if kept ready is ready to respond to combat operations on a moments notice or even based upon preauthorized launch scenarios.
Survivability, not a a single CX-1 employed by the Intracircumcordei Security Forces has been taken out in combat duties from enemy fire to date.
The stealth design of this aircraft drastically reduces observability, the EM redistributors heat masking, smoke collection and skin lightwaveform translation camosystem renders the craft visiaully difficult to detect. The sound at high speeds can be a dead give away however at low speeds the lowspeed engine operates at reduced noise for a hum.
Smart weapons and an intelligent aircraft assist in weapons accuracy rendering the craft largely immune to fault based upon known physical - environmental miscaculation.
Buffeting such as bird strike or environmental effects are drastically reduced, standard operation at hypersonic models is posible via a hard yet elastic skin. When operating underway small and medium sized fish cause little harm at max speed of between 40 and 60 miles/hour. Large fish such as whales and sharks may cause some internal disruption and potential issues. Salt water etc.. needs to be cleanses by air presurization before transition of subsurface to air operation but for the most part is 'burned off'
vibration control is increased by both an intelligent skin and frame and by onboard flight control.
Field repairs are generally not advised unless at a properly equiped facility due to the very high technology nature of the craft, regular aircraft maitenance just won't cut it. NOVATEC with any contract or FPA is willing to make accessable a mechanicle maitenance suite specifically for the CX-1 which is interoperable with other ICCD security forces standard operating equipment, while still being able to handle and most other equipment.
Aircraft Engines are state of the art and unique to the CX-1 series.
Fuels used are a lH2lO2 form.
Lubricants and cryo fluids are of a variety of hitechnology makeup. Export Agreements to states applicable to FPA or purchasing contract can be jointly signed on a nonfixed rate basis or a prenegotiated termed fixed rate.
Optics & Electronics are optimized for low heat high capacity.
Prevention of Pollution - the actual fuel of the aircraft is Hydrogen oxygen burnign mixture and has an extremely low pollution causation due to high efficiency burning and the lack of carbon as many organic fuels might have. All ICCD production sites utilize 'waste recycling systems' to reharness chemical wastes for seperation and reuse among the various industires in ICCD. NOVATEC is required by ICCD ESSI to conform to these standards in other localities for the purpose of their rights to be the manufacturer of the craft to foreign parties. .
The is ample space in the cockpit for torso movement headmovement and for the pilot to stretch their legs even posible through mechanical hardened assistance for optional flight position modes, as is required by some manovers. Being strapped into the seat assists in maintaining contrl during alternativng G movements.
Chaff and Flares laser scattering, and EMP bursts allow for mudding of potential enemy missle strikes. The shiva system can send out a ball to 'eat up' incoming gun fire, by directional firing. forward or aft.
The Explosive capacity of this craft is primarily done by it's armarment, however, in a snap the craft can be tunred intoa flying intelligent missle.
Energy Generation & Storage overlapping storage rings as sources of initial particles. The high efficiency of this method is provided by using, in collisions, the appropriate ions and the absence of losses in the medium due to in-flight production. The yields of the positronium, protonium, antihydrogen and ions of the antiprotonic helium isoelectronic.
Effectively 'freeflaoting electron stripping via a charged state feild, in positive ionization the electroconduction is however stronger at the electronic component stage and is then focused and redistributed through the nanocircuitry.
Air pressure passing through the AOA and coolant /heat distrobution tunnels assist in wind power energy generation. safer, more secure, efficient, and environmentally friendly air transportation system. evolutionary propulsion systems that are intelligent, whisper quiet, structurally integral to the vehicles, and clean and lean with near-zero emissions.
mission range - the interceptor has a range of around 1500 km where as the long range craft has a range of arond 5000 km, this can vary depending on fuel economy and 'glide'. Underwater operations can see the craft fuel economy drop due to heavier fuel to distance ratio of underwater operation. This in part can be copensated by use of internal electrolysis generation of oxygen and hydrogen from water, but the catch being that more energy is generated in air then in water thus the electroylsis is better for use upon emergence in water. after having a high battery level but intending to resurface to regenerate some lost water. Operating the craft in an out of water can increase distance however it will be more taxing on the coolant systems..
The aircraft is capable of cruise / glide in case of stall however altitude will lower this is aided by the AOA internal air direction to have lower tunnels act as a 'parachute' that is having the tunnels from side angles exert pressure on the downward tunnels to have direct air cussioning, which can is used for lift functions. However, the speed of the aircraft with gradually reduce.
The aircraft is designed for wieght balancing of payloads for 'optimal use' at balanced loads. Although still operational if armarment is disproprotionatly fired. The computer navagation system will kick in and compensate for flight balancing and thruster positioning.
aircraft cruise drag is reduced by use of the nanotunneling and airflight design and aerodynamic surfaces.
weapon drag is all but removed by internalization and aerodynamic formation of external surfaces.
structural weight is balanced for 'structural resistance' along with flight maximization, alloys and composits are the pirpary force while actual structure and kinetic force realignment and break stress channel result in critical ammounts of extra stress firing off small pelets rathr than breaking aircraft up, this can be turned off or on
subsystem weight it kept lower than older model aircraft by implementing nanocirucitry and in general newer technology. the internalization of some combonents reduce surface redundancy lowering weighting even more. Since many systems are shilded some protections are not required to be double redundant.
optimal control gains are seen via the computer flight system, and greater catering of human pilots.
aircraft systems are keyed to have maximal capcitzation of a box of no damage aircraft with supior speed and stealth.
flight controls and control surfaces use not only pixelation but also projection. The controls are more than just nose /thrust position but itegrate tunneling controls and underbelly vstol thrusters. these are implemented via foot and arm control with a variety of fight options, such as voice, keyed, or other options.
manufacture and assembly is done at high technology design centers and assembled under the highest level of security, a variety of cost saving and performance enhancing methods have been implemented at every design research development prototyping modifiaction production and shipping stage.
the aircraft is future modifiable to a degree, but it is not advisable to do independant modifications unless you know the function. Contractors may make request for a changeup in systems for their production yeild; no gaurenties can be made to the modifiability or performance of a craft so modified.
The maintenance procedures of the cx-1 series is very demanding. The aircraft should not be flown with any damage if it is to perform without performance loss or even health risk. Aircraft should have atleast 1 hour of inspection a day, as is standard in ICCD and inspection and diagnostic tools and software are provided with any order of 50 or more aircraft or can be purchased independantly. A simple datachip provides all the information on the CX-1 as released by NOVATEC for use and pilot training. This information is by default int he information system of the computer but the 'craft information package comes with a wide host of usable and promotional material.
Cost varies upon component pricing.
The aircraft is, in good maitenance, set to outlive its required design life span of 20 years. Flight hours and use can effect lifespan either lengthening or shortening lifespan.
all weighting on the aircraft is used by structural offset, event, and load validation analysis this information is fed into the computer system for a variety of uses.
aeronautical and space systems, the CX-1e and CX-1f are airtight with flight shielding from a number of space based threats such as nonatmospheric heat and cosmic radiation. The craft is also presure resistant to depth of over a kilometer ?
Landing Gear the aircraft has landing 'rollers' for distributed load on touchdown, the main rear and front are extrareinforced for initial and final impacts. The gears can also ferry the craft onground, and the cx-1 can maintain a road driving speed if it has the wingspan clearance. Fast Chemical Vapour / Infiltration (CVI) for brakes
Flight Controls & Hydraulics are integrated with the computer system with sensors to report information on the status of the systems. The hydraulics are strong enough to allow for cussion on landing. Wheels & Brakes are made of impact resistant alloy and the breaking system utilizes energy field and physical frictive also lower thrusters can be 'counter pressure' to apply extra frontal directed thurst for quick stopping
There are two model types of this basic design. The long range stealth fighter/bomber version and the short range interceptor. Generally the long range version is 'higher powered' but is not a manoverable. The long range version also is also more resource intensive.
All major sensors and computing systems are removable but integration is size dependant and internal bus / dependant. The bus is laregly located within the airframe, theoretically it could be taken out but it would probably be more costly then making a new airframe/shell. To take abard the access components requires specialized equipment and factory default codes, otherwise inbuilt protection scemes may 'fry' or corrupt the system data..

ENGINE
DAUL RAMSCOOP - SCRAMJET ENGINE with PDE technology
PDE engines use electronic ignition that forces a powerful shock wave down the exhaust tube. The shock wave is so strong that some of it actually bursts out of the front air intake, creating a donut like smoke ring around the exhaust chamber.
COOLING- high heat endothermic fuels for long range liquid cooled engine cooling
Range: 1000/5000+ kilometers / not designed for area refueling but if required an addon can be attached to aircraft but reduces stealth, mod can be removed by properly equiped refueler.hydrogen fuelled Scamjet backupboosters – to propel craft at MACH 7 30 second pulses. Faster shorter durations can also be done up to mach13. mach 8 25 seconds mach 9 20 seconds mach 10 15 seconds mach 11 10 seconds mach 12 5 seconds mach 13 <1 second Must already be at mach 5 to engage booster.
it is a CLEAN engine, the only emmission is H2O this H20 is transferred into the hover water supply
no moving parts means very easy to service at proper facility
In scramjet mode Operational gains of scramjets over conventional ramjet and rocket missile systems are: - greater rocket efficiency (by a factor of 3-10)- increased cruise range (by a factor of 2)- reduced response time (Mach 8 -1200km in 15 mins.) Engaging the Ramscoop in the atmosphere reduces maximum speed to Mach 2; Mach 3 can be maintaining for two hours, or Mach 5 for 10 minutes. use booster to Mach 3-4, when air breathing engine would operate in subsonic ramjet mode. As vehicle accelerates to Mach 5-6, transition to supersonic (scramjet) combustion occurs smoothly for Mach 7-8 cruise atmosphere up to about Mach 15 without having to carry heavy oxygen(not designed for flight above mach 13, risking engine overheat(melt siezing) it could maybe pull it off for a second or so)
turbofan Ramscoop hybrids - extended range + in atmosphere extreme and sudden de-acceleration may be done. used to drop back, reversing positions with a pursuing fighter and putting one's self in a prime position to fire greater targeting. with 360 degree thrust vectoring from +60 degrees through -60 degrees. thermal gel coating,.
directed magnetic fields (used in the stealth system can be primed to interfere with incoming magnetically charged objects); There is a 5% chance that an incoming missile(Unless made of purely non-magnetic materials), particle cannon/plasma shot, rail gun shot, or gun shot (Unless made of purely non-magnetic materials) will be deflected by the fields when activated in the atmosphere. Rail guns and guns that fire bursts to do damage will have that damage reduced by 5%.
ENDOTHERMIC FUEL:LH2/LO2 High heat-sink (endothermic) hydrocarbon fuels decompose to give low molecular weight hydrocarbon gases and hydrogen. Endothermic fuel permits active cooling of components to higher temperatures than conventional hydrocarbon fuels: Exhaust itself from is filtered out by way of catalyst and burn filter so that trace signature is reduced. endothermic fuels to provide regenerative cooling.
Sensors to measure service stresses and temperatures in engine components with the craft plugged into a virtual command center so that multiple plausible object interaction can be predicted by the computer system. When running in safe mode, the AI system will respond to insure ongoing mission operation success, like a game of chess.fast pased lasers in the preexuast exahust valves measure the composition of the exhaust and do corrective ionization and mixing.EXHAUST Smoke Contrails - Burns clean and efficeint fuel, filters of fuel prior to input and prior to injection or streaming are filtered and hard deposit. Uses cone system as to have ionization at flame point to attrack carbon particles to ionized board. features Active Frequency Damping (AFD) and comparable active noise control systems. Visual signature is reduced through a chloro-flurosulphonic acid that is injected into the exhaust gases of the powerplant, eliminating engine vapor contrails.- engines take advantage of higher temperature materials
V/STOL Capabilities: can taking off and land, fully loaded, by using Thrusters. It is capable of operating at any speed and hovering on thrusters as well; However, the Thrusters will overheat if water or coolant supply to cool engine is used up
Water can be collected when operating’ ‘underwater to be electrolysized to refuel the oxygen and hydrogen storage tanks or purfied and stored for use with the VTOL coolants. System can 'rain water' if required or produce a steam feild (which can be used to alter heat signature placements. (a few gallon) an alternative fuel could be used but general water is stored for dispersal as a coolant during water lifts. --------------------------------------
Space: THIS MODEL IS NOT DESIGNED FOR SPACE Flight but can use thrusters to manover in space. NOTE THE CX-S-1G (is modeled for space flight via an XEON HYBRID PROPULSION ENGINE but the craft is much larger and not designed as a fighter interceptor)
Combustion Technology
Shock wave interactions in supersonic combustion define the supercritical stability margins. Long isolator ducts separate intake exit flow from the influence of combustor pressure rise
Active & Passive Cooling Passive thermal protection (e.g. ablative materials high temperature ceramics and coated C/C) are adequate for typical flight times below Mach 5 Or short durations at Mach 6.5 (10 to 20 minutes). Active cooling (combustors and parts of exhaust nozzles) for >Mach 6.5 for more than 5 mins.
Ceramic composite: lightweight, high temperature, high strength oxidation resistant composite materials, that allows nano thermo diffusion throughout the entire structure reuducing the heat signature of the craft and allowing faster cooling. Conduites act as pathways from highheat to lowheat areas in a pattern as to make operational even distribution and peak cooling. Damage Tolerant material- composite materials, particularly carbon fibre reinforced plastics (CFRP) allowing a reduced number of parts compared to metallic designs. Titanium alloys, intermetallics and composites- Advanced refractory metals and alloys Intermetallics and intermetallic composites reinforced with ceramic fibres - Ceramic & C/C composites with better oxidation resistance + protective coatings - lightweight thermal insulation plus processing for structures with complex cooling passages - high thermal conductivity materials and coatings that can survive contact with cooling fuel (e.g. copper-based alloys and composites). Coatings and surface modification treatments for increased protection against environmental attack, abrasive wear, fretting fatigue etc. Thermal barrier coatings (tbcs) allow static and rotating turbine components to operate at 150oC higher temperatures than uncoated materials Corrosion and stress corrosion resistant ultra high strength steels
percision flow performance of flow system components such as valves, check valves, pressure regulators, flow meters, cavitating venturis, and propellant run tanks. interaction between cryogenic fluid flow and immersed sensors that predicts the dynamic load on the sensors, frequency spectrum, heat transfer, and effect on the flow field, are needed.
* Smart system components (control valves, regulators, and relief valves) that provide real-time closed-loop control, component configuration, automated operation, and component health. Components must be able to operate in cryogenic temperatures (as low as 160R for LOX and 34R for LH2 ) under high pressure (up to 15,000 psi) high flow rate conditions (2000 lb/s - 82 ft/s for LOX, 500 lb/sec - 300 ft/s for LH2 ).

SPARTAN (SPECIAL PROBABILITY ANALYSIS RESPONSE TACTICAL ANDROID NETWORK)
The aircraft itself is a large computer with distributed processors for heat reduction. Quasi-Delay Insensitive integrated circuits, which is a robust, asynchronous circuit that provides several major benefits as compared to traditional versions (circuits governed by an internal clock); these include early completion of circuits when it is known that the inputs which have not yet arrived are irrelevant, lower power consumption because transistors do not work unless performing useful computations, superior modularity and composability, adaptable circuit speed based on temperature and voltage conditions (synchronous chips are locked in at optimal clock speed for worst-case conditions), easier manufacturing processes due to lack of transistor-to-transistor variability, and less produced Electro-Magnetic Interference (Synchronous circuits create enormous amounts of EMI at frequency bands near clock frequencies). The entire avionics suite is driven by a Central Integrated Processor [CIP], which is a supercomputer built into the airframe. Because the integrated circuits operate under Quasi-Delay Insensitive logic, signals and instructions are processed near-instantaeneously, without consideration for the restraints of a clock circuit Fly-By-Light scheme nm fiber-optic cables just nanometers thick. improved signal transfer speed that light offers. renders the aircraft virtually immune to electro-magnetic interference. The system binds all of the aeroelastic control surfaces and canards together, giving the pilot an aircraft capable of outmanuvering virtually any aircraft in the world. Actuators actuation materials (piezoelectric and electrostrictive) with increase strain capability Shape memory alloys with high bandwidth response time and constitutive behaviour Design power conditioning and switching minimise local heat loads to avoid thermal damage of the host material. embeded electronics to support of intelligent functions on sensors. these small little components are comparible to a 200+ MHz PC with approximately 32+ MB of RAM and similar non-volatile storage, analog input/output (I/O) (at least two of each, with programmable amplification and anti-aliasing filters, plus automatic calibration) digital I/O (at least eight), communication port for Ethernet bus protocol (one high speed and one low speed), support for C programming (or other high level language), and a development kit for a PC. Where once you thought ' handheld' now think finger held or smaller. Technology such as this will revolutionize the world. The key int eh aircraft system is to integrate the computer distorubtion system inside the ceramic composition of the aircraft layers. Think 'clusters' of sharable microcomponents so that the craft uses localized power. If part of the pathway is broken other portions will pick up the slack as long as there is a pathway for datatransfer.
Use of external scanning temperature and voltage calibration source via contact with the same system that is used to measure the aircraft heat.that is the pathways themseves act as thermal and EM configuration measurement .
(prepositional logic, fuzzy logic, neural nets, etc. layering and prioritization systems, task sets and timeframe configuations are just a few) High accuracy, precision, uncertainty bands, and error bands - data processing and control using high performance computing, neural networks, fuzzy. These models are optimized by use of integrating atmospheric operations data which is filtered for potential issues that is configurations for flights based upon environmental conditions and inputed intelligence troops or resistance estimates. In a real time analysis. This is inputed witth data such as opposing states miitary structres and type of equipment detected to give clear ideas of opposition that is actual present and adjusts prioritization and probabilities accordingly. Each aircraft if in a fight group can intercommunicate data can be sent to the aircraft via sataite or if applicable ground or other communications sources.
Operational infrastructure support AM/FM (automated mapping / facilities management) . The aircraft can also store communications broadcasts such as in range radiowaves and analyse them in real time for potential intelligence . For instance if there is a radio report of air warning or damaged structurs this can be added depending on the acceptance of the commnication as 'trusted'.

When signals are detected they are analyzed at high speeds for conversion algorythems, that is decay or morphing that may not be accounted for
HUMAN INTERFACE Onboard computer flight interface, hotkeys preprogramed for various functions.
Neural Interface: Though it can be piloted through a standard system, the neural-interface(advanced cybernetics) design allows a cybernetic uplink jack to connect with an appropriate plug in. This is utilized by 'a common activity readout and a large number of flight tests to scan for reacivity of brain levels during different actions. The pilot then 'imagines' them flying the area, with either vr asistance or without. Training special commands is a second generation capability, the pilot can then think about how they feel during a manouver etc.. the longer the training programs are used the more perceise the ideas locked to computer assisted manouvers. This allows that pilot to control the aircraft by thought alone (also usable via remote)
