N2 - Aircraft, generally, and military aircraft in particular are complex systems and the demand for high-performance flying platforms is constantly growing regardless whether for civil or military purposes. The development of aircraft is inherently multidisciplinary and the exploitation of the interaction of the design-driving disciplines opens the door for new designs, and consequently, for new high-performance aircraft [1]. An important feature of modern aircraft development processes and procedures is to enable the engineers accessing these design spaces in the concept phase, where the key configuration decisions are made and frozen for later development phases. Furthermore, pushing more MDO and numerical analysis capabilities into the early design phase will support the decision-making process through reliable physical information. It is worth mentioning that these design spaces are very large and can hardly be grasped and explored by humans without a structured approach and massive support of numerical analysis methods.
