Bus Voyager

Bus Voyager. The basic structure of the spacecraft is called the “bus” which carries the various engineering subsystems and scientific instruments It is like a large tensided box which can be seen in the Voyager diagram The centerline of the bus is called the zaxis (and thus the High Gain Antenna) points to Earth The spacecraft is designed to roll about this axis by firing small thrusters which are.

RoleCapabilityType HistoryVoyager is the RAF’s sole airtoair refuelling (AAR) tanker and also operates as a strategic air transport The aircraft is in service as the Voyager KCMk 2 equipped with two underwing pods for refuelling fast jets and as the Voyager KCMk 3 with an additional centreline hose for use by large aircraft Fuel offloaded during AAR is taken from the aircraft’s standard wing and fuselage tanks leaving the cabin free for up to 291 personnel and the hold available for freight As a tanker capabilities include the ability to operate a ‘towline’ where the Voyager orbits around a prescribed area awaiting ‘receivers’ or in a ‘trail’ where it flies with a number of fast jets refuelling them over long ranges while taking responsibility for the formation’s fuel and navigation Alternatively it can operate as a passenger aircraft in much the same way as a civilian airliner but delivering personnel safely into theatre thanks to its defensive aids suite Voyager also offers considerable capacity for the movement of palletised and/or bulk freight in its lower fuselage hold A versatile aeromedical configuration including the ability to carry up to 40 stretchers and three critical care patients is available as is a modest VIP passenger fit Airbus Industry launched its combined A340/A330 programme on June 5 1987 It aimed to produce a family of closely related widebody airliners based on the fourengined longhaul A340 and twinengined mediumhaul A330 The latter achieved its first flight with General Electric engines on November 2 1992 with the initial RollsRoyce Trentpowered machine following on January 31 1994 Typically for Airbus the A330’s pilots interact with its flybywire system via sidestick controllers rather than the yoke traditionally associated with large aircraft The basic A330200 and longer A330300 have been developed into a wide range of subvariants offering revised performance and different maximum takeoff weights The earlier A310 widebody had found favour with several air arms as the basis for conversion into a military transport or multirole tanker transport (MRTT) and Airbus recognised the type’s potential as a possible TriStar/VC10 replacement in the early 1990s trialling a mo.
