Abstract
A general research fighter model was tested in the Langley 7- by 10-foot high speed tunnel at a Mach number of 0.3. With a conventional empennage, the model was tested with the wing in a 60 deg swept back configuration and in a 32 deg swept forward configuration. The 32 deg swept forward configuration was also tested with a strake. Very limited data was obtained with a wing in a 50 deg swept back configuration and a 7 deg swept forward configuration. The angle of attack range was from approximately -4 deg to 48 deg at sideslip angles of 0 deg, -5 deg, and 5 deg.
