Project: Intelligent Flight Control System (IFCS)
NASA Dryden’s highly modified F-15B aircraft, tail number 837, was the IFCS research testbed aircraft. The flight test results were used in an overall strategy aimed at advancing neural network-based flight control technology to new aerospace systems designs. Many vehicle classes were considered as opportunities arose, including commercial, fighter, transport aircraft, unmanned air vehicles, and spacecraft.March 3, 2003
