Download Ground Observer Ability to Detect and Estimate the Range of Jet Aircraft Flying Over Hilly Terrain Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
During a series of tests to provide operational and technical data for evaluating the capabilities of surface-based air defense systems against attacks by low-altitude high-performance aircraft, the capabilities of ground observers to detect and estimate the range to aircraft flying attack missions against prebriefed ground targets were examined. Observer performance was obtained for three aircraft flying three programmed speeds and two programmed altitudes. Sixteen observers searched a 180 deg sector for each trial, with early warning of an aircraft approach being provided for some trials. Three real time events--time at detection, time when the aircraft was at the estimated inbound range, and time when aircraft was at the estimated outbound range--were recorded for each observer for each trial.

Download Aircraft Detection, Range Estimation, and Auditory Tracking Tests in a Desert Environment Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Detection tests with low-flying jet aircraft were conducted to determine the effect of (a) varying the location of observers from the flight path, (b) using optical aids vs. unaided observation, and (c) varying the amount of temporal early warning. Also tested were man's ability to (a) visually estimate the distance to high-speed jets, (b) track aircraft by ear, and (c) determine the distances at which various aircraft structural features were recognized. When distant terrain masking existed, unaided and optically aided detections occurred at approximately the same time. However, when near terrain masking existed, unaided detections occurred sooner. Using binoculars resulted in earlier recognition of structural features. A change from one minute to five minutes of temporal early warning did not affect detection range. As offset increased from 200 meters to 3,300 meters, detection range increased. The range estimation tests were inconclusive. The results of the auditory tracking tests suggest that it may be possible to extend the capabilities of some fair weather air defense systems to poor visibility conditions. The order in which structural features were recognized was different between fighters and bombers, but there were consistencies within each class of aircraft.

Download Studies on Training Ground Observers to Estimate Range to Aerial Targets Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Six pilot studies were conducted to determine the effects of training on range estimation performance for aerial targets, and to identify some of the relevant variables. Observers were trained to estimate ranges of 350, 400, 800, 1,500, or 2,500 meters. Several variations of range estimation training methods were studied, including immediate knowledge of results after making an estimation, 'paired associate' presentation of observed aircraft position with actual range information, and the use of an occluding object as a range estimation aid. Two variables that tended to influence performance were aircraft elevation and incoming-outgoing directions of flight. (Author).
