A wind tunnel test was conducted to obtain the surface pressure distributions of three elliptic missile body configurations. The test was performed at nominal Mach numbers from 0.4 to 1.3 at a constant nominal free-stream unit Reynolds number of 2.4 million per ft. The angle-of-attack range was -4 to 20 deg at sideslip angles of -4, 0, and 4 deg. Only sample tabulations of the test results are included in the report. Keywords: Elliptic bodies, Power law bodies, Pressure test, Transonic flow.
