MHI begins assembly for advanced technology demonstrator aircraft project
Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. (MHI) began assembly of a fullscale structural-testing model of an advanced technology demonstrator (ATD). The ATD, which MHI is building under the contract with the Japan Ministry of Defence, will be used to prove the airworthiness of advanced technologies, including stealth capabilities and high manoeuvrability, for future Japanese fighters.
With the commencement of assembly, the ATD project has now moved into the production phase.
The ATD prototype project was launched in Japanese fiscal year 2009 (April 2009-March 2010) in the situation of next-generation fighter development programmes in neighbouring countries. Through flight tests of advanced technologies relating to stealth and high manoeuvrability, the project aims at the empirical research of the advanced fighter technologies and air defence systems that are capable of coping with the stealth fighters that may soon be deployed around Japan.
