Abstract
Report presenting an investigation on a body of revolution with a sweptback wing with a 0.25-mean-aerodynamic-chord point at the maximum body diameter and 1.2 mean aerodynamic chords behind the maximum diameter. The fuselage had a fineness ratio of 10, a 45 degree swept wing with an aspect ratio of 4.0, a taper ratio of 0.6, and NACA 65A006 airfoil sections parallel to the plane of symmetry. Lift, drag, pitching moments, and angles of attack were measured at a range of Mach numbers.
