Abstract
Aerodynamic characteristics obtained in a rotational flow environment, utilizing a rotary balance, are presented in plotted form for a 1/12 scale conformal fuel tank equipped F-15 airplane model. The configurations tested included in the buildup of airplane components and the basic airplane with various control deflections. Data are presented for all configurations without analysis for an angle of attack range of 8 to 90 deg, and clockwise and counterclockwise rotations covering an omega b/2V range from 0 to 0.4. Selected configurations are presented over an extended omega b/2V range from 0 to 0.9.
