  • DARPA는 항공 우주 분야에서 미국의 군사적 우위를 유지하기 위하여 다양한 극초음속 비행체 연구개발 프로그램을 진행하고 있다. DARPA의 극초음속 비행체 개발의 중심에는 HTV-1, HTV-2, HTV-3X를 거쳐 HCV로 진행되는 단계별 장기 계획을 포함하는 Falcon 프로그램이 있으며, 극초음속 항공기의추진기관인 TBCC 엔진 기술 연구 개발 프로그램인 HiSTED, FaCET, MoTr 및 Vulcan 프로그램을 진행하고 있다. 본 문건은 이들 프로그램의 배경 및 기술 요소 및 프로그램 사이의 관계 등에 정리한 것이다.

  • The Air and Space Interoperability Council (ASIC) has adopted the European Defence Agency (EDA) process for inter-regulatory military airworthiness authority recognition. However, there are gaps in the application of this process to nations outside of the European Union. This paper proposes a model that can effectively map diverse technical airworthiness regulatory frameworks. This model, referred to as the Product-Behaviour-Process (PBP) Bow-Tie model, provides the systematic structure needed to represent and compare regulatory frameworks. The PBP Bow-Tie model identifies key points of difference that need to be addressed, during inter-agency recognition between the two regulatory authorities. With the intention to adopt global use of the EDA process, the proposed PBP Bow-Tie model can be used as a basis for the successful recognition of regulatory frameworks outside of the European Union. Iris plots produced from the implementation of this model are presented, and proposed as a suitable means of illustrating the outcome of an assessment, and of supporting the comparisons of results. A comparative analysis of the Australian Defence Force and New Zealand Defence Force airworthiness regulatory frameworks is used as a case study. The case study clearly illustrates the effectiveness of the model in discerning regulatory framework differences; moreover, it has offered an opportunity to explore the limitations of the Iris plot.
