Project: Intelligent Flight Control System (IFCS)
The IFCS flight research project evaluated self-learning neural network concepts into flight control software that could efficiently optimize aircraft performance in normal and failure conditions, enabling a pilot to maintain control and safely land an aircraft that had suffered a major systems failure or combat damage. The IFCS testbed aircraft was the highly-modified NF-15B #837, shown here.March 3, 2003
