Abstract
A dissimilar FCS based on fluidic technology, integrated with a redundant electronic FCS, promises to increase the mission reliability and survivability of high performance aircraft by providing protection from common mode and potential EMI/EMP induced failures. Current emphasis is on developing critical hydrofluidic servoactuation systems and components which will meet demanding requirements for performance, size, weight, reliability and power consumption.
