Description: Three degree of freedom approximate models have been developed for the XR-3 and the 3K-SES. Implementation in the IBM 360/67 and comparisons of turning characteristics with the 6 DOF program for the XR-3 and the 5 DOF program for the 3K-SES show good correlation. Hybrid implementation of the 3 DOF model of the XR-3 also shows good correlation. Hybrid implementation of the 3 DOF model for the 3K-SES is in progress, and extension to 5 DOF is being planned.
