摘要: | The military services routinely conduct destructive testing of aircraft by subjecting them to missile and projectile damage under conditions likely to be encountered in combat. This live-fire testing has built considerable expertise in identifying warhead damage on aircraft structure and systems. The Federal Bureau of Investigation and the National Transportation Safety Board requested assistance from the military community in identifying possible missile impact damage on the wreckage of TWA Flight 800. Visits to Calverton. N.Y.. were made to examine the wreckage from TWA Flight 800. These inspections were documented and combined with other data to analyze the possibility that a shoulder-launched missile was responsible for the destruction of the aircraft. This report presents the results of the TWA Flight 800 analysis. This report is intended as a quick-look engineering summary. not a detailed scientific analyses. |
