Visual information and aural warning of independent aircraft survivability equipment increase the pilot workload and limit the effective countermeasures. For increase the aircraft survivability, Integrated design of survivability display and aural warning need to consider pilot intuitions. If pilot aware the threat by intuition, evade or escape from the threat using the countermeasures equipment, it will increase the survivability. This paper describe the design and verification of for Utility Helicopter survivability equipment.

Aircraft's operational effectiveness is reduced due to threats from enemy anti-aircraft weapons, which is a weak point. In particular, guided missiles, which pose a threat to aircraft, are rapidly developing due to technological advancements in seekers, and are classified as one of the important technologies in weapon systems. Missile approach warning equipment installed to ensure aircraft survivability detects guided missiles and provides relevant information to respond. Tests were conducted domestically to verify the detection level of missile approach warning equipment, and test results were presented under various test conditions.

As the substantial increase in battlefield density, multiple and complex weapon system, Ensuring the Survivability of the platform has been emphasized. Most of platforms have equipped with ASE (Aircraft Survivability Equipment) system in order to take action against at modernized hostile weapon under current battlefield. ASE system enhance the survivability of the platform through providing accurate situation awareness information by detecting and countermeasuring hostile threats. One of Key factor of the AE system performance is handling multiple and complex threats. Multiple and complex threat emulation is an effective means of ASE system verification In this study, It discuss system verification method before installation by dealing with complex threat situation consists of individual threat.

Avionics system tends to be designed to have the integrated architecture, and it is getting difficult and complex to verify the flight-critical function because of sophisticated structure. In Korean Utility Helicopter, mission computer acts as the MUX Bus Controller to handle the data from both communication, identification, mission/display and survivability equipment inside Mission Equipment Package and aircraft subsystems such as fuel system and electrical system while it is interfacing with Automatic Flight Control System and Full-Authority Digital Engine Control via ARINC-429 bus. The Flight Displays which is classified as flight-critical function in aircraft is implemented on Primary Flight Display after mission computer processes data from AFCS in order to generate graphics. This paper defines the flight-critical function implemented in mission computer for KUH, and presents the static and dynamic test procedures which is performed on System Integration Laboratory along with Playback Recorder prior to flight test.

In electronic warfare settings, battlefield helicopters identify various threats based upon threat data, which are acquired using their multi-sensors of aircraft survivability equipment (ASE). To continually function despite of potential threats and successfully execute their missions, the battlefield helicopters have to repeatedly report threats in simulated battlefield situations. Toward this ends, the paper presents threat unification using multi-sensor simulator and its implementation. The simulator consists of (1) threat attributes generator, which models threats against battlefield helicopters and defines their specific attributes, (2) threat data generator, which generates threats, being similar to real ones, using normal, uniform, and exponential distributions, and (3) graphic display for threat analysis and unification, which shows unified threat information, for example, threat angle and its level. We implement a multi-sensor threat simulator that can be repeatedly operable in various simulated battlefield settings. Further, we report experimental results that, in addition to tangibly modeling the threats to battlefield helicopters, test the capabilities of threat unification using our simulator.

As the substantial increase in battlefield density, multiple and complex weapon systems, Ensuring the Survivability of the platform has been emphasized. Most of platforms have equipped with ASE (Aircraft Survivability Equipment) system in order to protect the platform and operator against at modernized hostile weapon. ASE system enhance the survivability of the platform through providing accurate situation awareness information by detecting and countermeasuring hostile threats. One of Key factor of the AE system performance is handling multiple and complex threats. In this study, it describes the fact that the performance of ASE system with proposed threat integration algorithm is verified in the developed threat emulation system and also, suggests system verification method before deployment by dealing with complex threat situation.

The Electronic Warfare Computer for the Aircraft Survivability Equipment will improve the ability for countermeasures by analysis about threat information. This paper suggests method that threat data integration of multiple sensors(Radar Warning Receiver, Laser Warning Receiver, Missile Warning Receiver). The algorithm of threat data integration is based on detected threat sequence and azimuth information. The threat sequence information is analyzed in advance and the azimuth data is received from sensors. The suggested method is evaluated through simulation under the environment like real helicopter.

To build autonomous agents who can make a decision on behalf of humans in time-critical complex environments, the formulation of operational knowledge base could be essential. This paper proposes the methodology of how to formulate the knowledge base and evaluates it in a practical application domain. We analyze threat data received from the multiple sensors of Aircraft Survivability Equipment(ASE) for Korean helicopters, and integrate the threat data into the inductive model through compilation technique which extracts features of the threat data and relations among them. The compiled protocols of state-action rules can be implemented as the brain of the ASE. They can reduce the amounts of reasoning, and endow the autonomous agents with reactivity and flexibility. We report experimental results that demonstrate the distinctive and predictive patterns of threats in simulated battlefield settings, and show the potential of compilation methods for the successful detection of threat systems.

Multi Function Display(MFD) of Korean Utility Helicopter(KUH) is the component of mission management/display control system and displays image information(navigation, flight, survivability, digital map, maintenance) acquired from Mission Computer(MC) while the aircraft is operated. It is an essential equipment for pilots to perform flight mission and it has functions of display scene control, data display, built in test(BIT) and brightness control. In this paper, it is analyzed the cause of abnormal display(flickering) on MFD and summarized the design changes to solve the defect. It is also described system safety analysis and suggested verification results of flight/ground test.

Air-to-ground missile(AGM), which can be operated by being mounted on the outside of the aircraft, is capable of precision strikes, ensuring high survivability. Helicopter, which is one of the AGM operating platforms, is reported to experience a lightning strike once between 1000 and 20000 flight hours in average. When the lightning strikes the helicopter fuselage, lightning transient signal can be induced to internal and external electronic equipment cables through the skin of the helicopter. If the transient signal exceeding the criteria to electrically initiated device(EID) related to the explosive in the AGM can affect the safety of the helicopter by a warhead explosion, etc. In this paper, we suggest an indirect lightning test method to prove the safety of AGM on helicopter, and present the indirect lightning test results.
