The objective of this study was to develop a prototype development plan for installing the best choice OBIGGS in an Advanced Tactical Fighter (ATF). The best choice OBIGGS was based on detailed studies of inert gas requirements for ATF missions and trade-off studies to arrive at the best system preliminary design. Detailed specifications were defined for the best system preliminary design. Detailed specifications were defined for the best choice OBIGGS and life cycle cost studies were conducted to compare this OBIGGS with other fuel tank fire protection techniques. Results of the mission analysis and preliminary design studies are presented in Volume I; results of the other studies and the prototype development plan are in Volume II. Keywords: Aircraft fire protection, Fuel tank inerting, On-board inert gas generation.
