The Task-1 contract on TCAS-11 produced a system concept and a design specification that show the 743 Aircraft L. A. Basin Model with peak densities well in excess of 0.4 aircraft per square nautical mile can be met. This Task-2 contract is for the design, construction, and testing of two enhanced TCAS-11 (TCAS-111) Engineering units. A description of the TCAS-111 engineering model is presented along with results from various flight tests of the system. System no. 1 has been installed on the FAA's 727 since 1983. Testing shows that angular accuracies in the order of 1 to 2 degrees are feasible and that Horizontal Resolution Advisories can be given on intruders. System no. 2 was delivered to the FAA Technical Center and installed on a Convair 580. Both systems will continue to fly as test beds for TCAS 111.
