Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The RAH-66 Comanche never entered production, yet it became one of the most ambitious and technologically advanced rotorcraft programs ever undertaken by the United States Army.Why did the Army invest nearly two decades in a stealth reconnaissance helicopter-and what caused the program to end after billions of dollars, extensive testing, and major engineering breakthroughs The RAH-66 Comanche Helicopter Engineering Handbook takes you inside the aircraft's complete development story. Moving from the original Light Helicopter Experimental requirement to flight testing, cancellation, and technological legacy, this detailed reference explains not only what engineers built, but why they made each critical design decision.Inside, you will: - Trace the Comanche from its Cold War origins and competitive selection to its 2004 cancellation- Understand its composite airframe, faceted geometry, and radar-signature reduction strategy- Examine the five-blade bearingless rotor, Fantail shrouded tail rotor, and LHTEC T800 engines- Explore its fly-by-wire controls, integrated avionics, helmet-mounted display, sensors, and internal weapons- Discover how engineers balanced stealth, speed, payload, survivability, weight, and cost- Follow the prototype flight-test program and the technical challenges uncovered along the way- Learn lasting lessons about requirements creep, acquisition risk, systems integration, and program managementDrawing on publicly available government reports, engineering summaries, and historical documentation, this handbook provides a structured, university-level examination of the RAH-66 Comanche program.Whether you are an aerospace engineering student, rotorcraft professional, defense analyst, acquisition specialist, or military aviation enthusiast, you will gain a deeper understanding of how advanced aircraft programs succeed technically yet fail programmatically.Explore the engineering achievement behind America's cancelled stealth helicopter-get your copy today.…
