STATIC STABILITY AND DRAG MEASUREMENTS ON A 0.289-SCALE MODEL OF THE ANGLED ARROW PROJECTILE AT A MACH NUMBER OF 4.28 USING VARIOUS NOSE AND FIN CONFIGURATIONS

Abstract

A series of tests at M=4.28 was conducted in the 40 x 40 cm aeroballistics tunnel no. 2 using a 0.289-scale model of the Angled Arrow projectile with various nose and tail modifications. From these tests the normal force coefficients (CN), the pitching moment coefficients about the base (C0B) and the axial force coefficients (CA) were obtained. These data are presented.
