Manned aircraft, such as this F-22 Raptor or F-35 Lightning II, could one day operate with autonomous attritable unmanned aircraft acting as wingmen. The award of the Skyborg Prototyping, Experimentation and Autonomy Development indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract sets the stage to begin prototyping and operational experimentation for the Skyborg Vanguard program.

Safe from sound? AFRL experts collect data inside hardened aircraft shelters around the world
An F-35 is parked inside a hardened aircraft shelter in the Netherlands during a testing session, led by acoustics experts in the Air Force Research Laboratory’s 711th Human Performance Wing. The team gathered acoustics data for the Netherlands Royal Air Force by affixing microphones to the fighter’s skin with a blue tape-like material and epoxies to avoid damaging the surface coatings, and then running up the engine at various intervals.

There are many shapes and sizes of jet-blast deflectors, all of which are concrete structures on the back of hardened aircraft shelters constructed to take the flow off jet engines and divert it. This one is from a shelter in the Netherlands where a team of Air Force Research Laboratory acoustics experts were gathering data to provide an official report to the Royal Netherlands Air Force for its HAS certifications.

Next generation coatings booth poised to save Air Force millions in energy
A next generation F-35 coatings application booth at Hill Air Force Base is set to become initially operational by October 2017. The state-of-the-art coatings booth project, led by the Air Force Research Laboratory’s Advanced Power Technology Office, is expected to save more than $330,000 annually in energy through the employment of advanced sensors, control logic and sophisticated software analysis tools to monitor and improve performance over the lifetime of the complex.
