Effects of external stores on the static longitudinal aerodynamic characteristics of a model of a 45 degree swept-wing fighter airplane at Mach numbers of 1.61 and 2.01

Gerald V. Foster, Cornelius Driver

Abstract

Report presenting an investigation in the 4- by 4-foot supersonic pressure tunnel to determine the effects of various external-store configurations on the longitudinal and lateral aerodynamic characteristics of a model of a 45 degree swept-wing fighter airplane. Results regarding accuracy and remarks on effects of stores are provided.
