The use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) has become an important concept for military operations. As more of these systems are utilized, the methods to control them become more difficult. This paper discusses an Automatic Air Collision Avoidance System (ACAS). This system prevents air-to-air between vehicles by tracking trajectories and intent of neighboring vehicles. Automation is achieved by providing data to the digital flight control computer from the other aerial vehicle and commanding an escape maneuver. The system is for both manned aircraft and for UAVs. In the case of manned aircraft, the system only activates at the last possible moment to avoid interfering with normal pilot operation. This paper also discusses results of a concept study conducted by U.S. and Swedish contractors. The concept study is precursor a to a joint integration and flight test program for both manned aircraft and UAVs.
