Aerospace Toolbox
R2026bAerospace Toolbox provides standards-based tools for designing aerospace vehicles and analyzing their motion, mission, and environment. You can interpret flight and mission data using aerospace math, coordinate frame transformations, and environment functions. You can observe vehicle motion and missions using 2D and 3D viewers, along with standard cockpit instruments.
Aerospace Toolbox supports the design and analysis of missions consisting of satellites, ground stations, and other platforms. You can define scenarios to perform orbit propagation, constellation design, trajectory and maneuver modeling, and line-of-sight (LOS) access analysis for Earth, Moon, and other celestial bodies.
The toolbox enables modeling of aircraft configurations defined by dynamics and imported aerodynamic data for performing control design and flying qualities analysis.
