What is it about?
Apply the power of C++ to aerospace vehicle simulations with this self-study course and take advantage of its multi-object feature to model interacting UAVs with satellites and targets. Building on your basic understanding of C++ and your familiarity with flight dynamics, you take a course taught at the University of Florida, learn from the PowerPoint presentation, and work the assignments. The 16 labs, divided into 32 training units, bring to life polymorphism, inheritance, and encapsulation by hands-on experimentation with 27 increasingly more complex simulations. In 38 exercises you apply your skills and check your progress against the provided solutions. This course complements the textbook Modeling and Simulation of Aerospace Vehicle Dynamics, Third Edition published in the AIAA Education Series.

Why is it important?
C++ is the computer language that also dominates sophisticated aerospace simulations in full six degrees of freedom
Perspectives
I taught M&S courses in aerospace at the University of Florida over ten years at great acclaim of my students.
