An indirect adaptive control system approach is presented and demonstrated via the nonlinear six degree of freedom simulation of a tailless fighter aircraft. A summary of the tailless aircraft configuration is given. The modular control system architecture is described and interactions between the modules are identified and illustrated using nonlinear simulation results. Mitigation approaches for addressing the adverse interactions are presented and illustrated using nonlinear simulation results. Simulation results that demonstrate the reconfiguration capability are also given. Copyright © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
