A shrouded SWERVE test vehicle was instrumented and tested at MACH 3. The instrumentation consisted of accelerometers, pressure transducers, and event markers arranged in a nine-channel configuration. Data from the instrumentation were transmitted from the vehicle through an FM/FM telemetry system. Two fire sets and their associated command and controls were also included in this package. The event was recorded on high-speed color film, and the trajectory data were recorded by a laser tracker. (ERA citation 12:044761)
