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. The close-coupled wing-canard combination was tested with both lifting surfaces in a 60 deg swept back configuration and in a 32 deg swept forward configuration. The angle-of-attack range was from approximately -4 deg to 48 deg at sideslip angles of zero deg, -5 deg. The data is presented without analysis in order to expedite publication.
