AIRCRAFT STORE TRAJECTORIES PREDICTED FROM WIND-TUNNEL INVESTIGATIONS COMPARED WITH FULL-SCALE FLIGHT RESULTS

Abstract

Some full-scale aircraft missile trajectory characteristics following launch from an airplane are compared with those predicted from wind-tunnel investigations. The predicted characteristics for the three available trajectories are believed to be in as good agreement as could be expected and for some factors, much better.
