Abstract :
THE COMPLEXITY of present-day high-performance aircraft and missiles is demanding better reliability of its various subsystems. A considerable amount of the equipment, such as guidance and flight control equipment, depends entirely upon the electric power system. Therefore, the electric power system is of primary importance in the over-all reliability of the aircraft.
