Lateral stability and control measurements of a fighter-type airplane with a low-aspect-ratio unswept wing and a tee-tail

Donald D. Arabian, James W Schmeer

Abstract

Report presenting an investigation of the lateral stability and control effectiveness of a model of a fighter-type airplane model with a low-aspect-ratio and 3.4-percent-thick wing with negative dihedral at a range of Mach numbers, sideslip angles, and angles of attack. Results regarding the lateral characteristics at zero angle of attack, lifting conditions, and lateral and directional controls are provided.
