Due to variable forward swept wings, Switchblade requires an active flight control system (AFCS) Switchblade will have “relaxed static stability” (i.e. - a negative static margin) The AFCS will maintain center of gravity (c.g.) positioning as well as canard, flaperon, and thrust vectoring interaction to achieve unparalleled performance regardless of mission type Stability & Control
