Over the past forty years, the number of fighter aircraft controlled flight into terrain (CFIT) accidents per flight hour has not improved despite the addition of multiple manual warning systems. The Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) has undertaken a program to develop an automatic system that will take over when the pilot can no longer recover the aircraft, perform an automatic recovery and quickly return control to the pilot.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
