- Description
- NASA/LaRC has a requirement for a single drop trailer with landing gear requirements that will serve as the LAS Pathfinder Transportation System. The LaRC Flight Test Article (FTA) Project is one element of a multi-center integrated Abort Flight Test Project (AFTP) whose primary purpose is to provide adequate testing to demonstrate proper performance and function of the Orion Crew Exploration Vehicle (CEV) Launch Abort System (LAS) throughout the required CEV abort flight envelope. To accomplish these flight tests, full-scale simulators will be required of the various Constellation architecture elements, including the LAS Pathfinder. The LAS Pathfinder is a full scale mass simulator that will be used by the operations team to exercise handling procedures and operations. The trailer will be used to transport and store the LAS Pathfinder. With the Rotating Shipping Bracket installed, it will also serve as a handling fixture as the LAS Pathfinder is rotated from a horizontal to vertical orientation during lifting operations. The specifications and drawings are linked above.
