Wind-tunnel Investigation at Mach Numbers from 0.8 to 1.4 of Static Longitudinal and Lateral-directional Characteristics of an Unswept-wing Airplane Model

Results are presented for a wind-tunnel investigation of an airplane model with a 3.4-percent-thick unswept wing of aspect ratio 2.45 at Mach numbers from 0.8 to 1.4 at a Reynolds number of 1.5 million. Longitudinal characteristics are presented for the basic model and for configuration variations involving two types of wing camber, an area-rule fuselage modification, various external-store arrangements, several conventional missile installations and one designed according to the moment-of-area concept, and two fuselage dive-flap arrangements. Lateral-directional characteristics of the basic model with and without the empennage are also included (p. 1).
