U.S. AIR FORCE TELEMETRY IN THE 1970’S

Abstract

The telemetry systems used by the U.S. Air Force in the ‘70’s must be highly reliable, flexible, possess growth potential and meet the requirements of operational realism, An attempt must he made to provision the basic weapon system design for the required telemetry hardware in order to prevent the tested version from incurring a penalty due to its subsequent incorporation. The components associated with future U.S. Air Force telemetry systems will be lighter, smaller, consume less power, withstand more severe environments, and cost much less than those of the past.
