Abstract:
A method and apparatus for generating, in an aircraft in flight, a feasibility display indicative of the feasibility of a weapon, the method comprising: providing a performance envelope for the weapon; determining, using the performance envelope, configuration data for configuring a generic algorithm; uploading the configuration data to the aircraft; generating feasibility data N indicative of the feasibility of a weapon carried on the aircraft successfully engaging a target and/or the feasibility of a weapon carried on the target successfully engaging the aircraft; determining, on board the aircraft, using the same generic algorithm and the uploaded configuration data, one or more test criteria; performing, on board the aircraft, an assessment process including determining whether or not the feasibility data satisfies the one or more test criteria; and, based the assessment, using the feasibility data, generating the feasibility display.

Claim (Index 6):
The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the one or more particular tests include one or more test criteria selected from a group of generic test criteria consisting of:\n R max> R min RNe>R min R max> RNe  R min> C 1 R max< C 2 IF  R max< R min THEN set  R max= R min; IF  RNe<R min THEN set  RNe=R min; IF  R max< RNe  THEN set  R max= RNe;  IF  R min< C 3 THEN set  R min= C 3; and IF  R max> C 4 THEN set  R max= C 4; where: Rmax is a maximum range of a Launch Acceptability Region, a Launch Success Zone, or a Missile Engagement Zone; RNe is a no-escape region of the Launch Acceptability Region, the Launch Success Zone, or the Missile Engagement Zone; Rmin is a minimum range of the Launch Acceptability Region, the Launch Success Zone, or the Missile Engagement Zone; C1 is a first predetermined distance from the aircraft; C2 is a second predetermined distance from the aircraft C3 is a third predetermined distance from the aircraft; and C4 is a fourth predetermined distance from the aircraft; and wherein modifying the feasibility data to satisfy the one or more particular tests comprises modifying the feasibility data to satisfy the one or more test criteria.
