Abstract: A gun mount which includes a cradle for holding at least two weapons, a carriage for holding the cradle such that the cradle may pivot left and right, and depress and elevate, at least two ammunition trays able to supply ammunition to the at least two weapons, a pintle, and a link deflector. The pintle is attached to the carriage and attachable to a gun stand. The link deflector deflects discharged ammunition links downward as the ammunition links come out of the weapons.

Abstract: A skin and tissue simulant including a gelatin composite block and an ether based cast polyurethane sheet. The gelatin composite block acting as the tissue simulant. The sheet acting as the skin simulant, the sheet disposed over a portion of the gelatin composite block.

Abstract: The present invention can be generally described as a blade monitoring and wireless communications system. This monitoring and communications system is formed by the integration of commonly available or easily developed hardware and/or software components, which may be controlled by non-proprietary, open architecture software. This allows the present invention to easily incorporate a variety of sensors and/or detectors; thereby, providing the user with the first blade monitoring system capable of providing an improved blade monitoring capability.

Abstract: The present invention can be generally described as a protection system. This protection system is formed by the integration of commonly available subsystems, which may be controlled by non-proprietary, open architecture software, which, in turn, may accommodate the commonly known “plug and play” capability. This allows the present invention to easily incorporate a variety of lethal (or less-than-lethal) weapon payloads as well as a variety of sensors and detectors; thereby providing the user with the first real, integrated system (of systems) solution capable of providing an enhanced situational awareness capability.

Abstract: A main rotor shear restraint that includes two spherical ball segments, two corresponding bearing outer races, and a spring system for loading the bearing outer races against the two spherical ball segments.

Abstract: The non-invasive corrosion sensor includes a heat sink, at least two peltiers, a reference standard and a data acquisition device. Each peltier has a negative side and a positive side, and each peltier communicates with the heat sink such that the negative side of each peltier is maintained at a common temperature. The reference standard communicates with the positive side of one of the peltiers while the test piece communicates with the positive side of the other peltier; and the data acquisition devise is able to record and compare the differences in temperatures between the test piece and the reference standard. A higher temperature in the test piece than in the reference standard indicates the presence of corrosion. The differences in temperatures of the test piece and the reference standard are obtained via electrical currents in the peltiers.
