The drag due to lift increases with increasing sweep through the Mach number range. Some increase in bag due to lift is evident decrease in taper ratio for wings having 300of sweep through most of the speed range.
A test and analysis method is presented for determining airplane lateral stability characteristics, including aerodynamic derivatives, from flight tests of scale models. The method of analysis utilizes the rotating time-vector concept and also a quasi-static approach. Data are presented at transonic speeds for three swept-wing rocket-propelled models differing only in vertical position and dihedral of the wing. The method proved to be adequate for delineating the major effects of the geometric variations on the aerodynamic lateral stability derivatives. The effects of Reynolds number on the linearity of the static stability data for an unswept wing configuration are illustrated.
An investigation was made to determine the effects of wing inboard plan-form modifications on the lift, drag, and longitudinal characteristics of a rocket-propelled free-flight model. The model had a body of fineness ration 17.4, a modified wing with a basic plan form swept back 52.5 degrees and an aspect ratio of 3, and inline horizontal tail surfaces which were aerodynamically pulsed continuously throughout the flight.
