Dynamic Longitudinal Stability Characteristics of a Swept-wing Fighter-type Airplane at Mach Numbers Between 0.36 and 1.45

C. H. Wolowicz

Abstract

Memorandum presenting an investigation of a swept-wing fighter-type airplane not equipped with an automatic pitch damper that made pulse maneuvers at altitudes from 10,000 to 40,000 feet over a Mach number range from 0.36 to 1.45 to determine the longitudinal stability characteristics and derivatives for an original-wing and an extended wing-tip configuration. Results regarding the original wing, extended wing, and influence of wing-tip extensions are provided.
