Abstract
A sensor/emitter arrangement (M1-M3) is integrated into the fuselage (120) structure of a specially designed air vehicle (100), in which the air vehicle is configured for optimizing operation of the sensor/emitter arrangement (M1-M3) with respect to at least azimuthal lines of sight radiating along a azimuthal reference plane of the air vehicle (100). The azimuthal reference plane intersects the air vehicle fuselage (120). In at least some embodiments, the fuselage (120) is formed with a plurality of oblate cross-sections that facilitate maximizing the room available for a sensor/emitter array (172, 174, 176) that is elongated along an elongate axis that may be aligned with the azimuthal reference plane. In at least some embodiments one or more such elongate axes may be inclines to the longitudinal (roll) axis and the pitch axis of the air vehicle (100). In at least some embodiments, the air vehicle may have a blunt aft end incorporating an elongate aft-facing sensor/emitter array (172, 174, 176).
