FY22 Year End Report of Delivery Environments Predictive Capabilities Use in Analysis of SRP Programs
As was established in a previous milestone report for FY20, W-13 continues to be tasked with analyses that require knowledge of in-flight environments and require an in-house capability to generate such environments. To this end, FY21 work included obtaining and benchmarking the use of such tools for an in-house capability. With these tools available for analysis tasks, FY22 work has been to continue the development of analysis for Responsive Development Experiment (ReDX) flights in the Stockpile Responsiveness Program (SRP). While no flights were executed in FY22 that leveraged internal flight analysis., this report shows that both CBAERO and TAOS were used in W-13 under the Delivery Environments Program for the FY22 milestone in order to predict the flight environments of ReDX flight 3 and determine preliminary environments of the Calypso flight vehicle which includes a deployable heat shield.
