Project: Advanced Control Technology for Integrated Vehicles (ACTIVE)
Operational checks of the flight control and instrumentation systems on the F-15B #837 ACTIVE project aircraft were conducted Sept. 18, 1995, in a test bay in the Integrated Test Facility at NASA’s Dryden Flight Research Center, Edwards, CA. A key feature of the ACTIVE research project was the evaluation of thrust vectoring nozzles, developed by Pratt and Whitney, that could enhance high angle of attack control and maneuverability on future aircraft.September 18, 1995NASA Photo› F-15 ACTIVE Project Description
