Wind Tunnel Test Results for the Direction Controlled Antitank (DCAT) Missile At Mach Numbers from 0.64 to 2.50.

Abstract

Wind tunnel test results are presented to show aerodynamic characteristics over the Mach number range of 0.64 to 2.50 of the DCAT missile. Data are presented showing the interference created by the rear mounted reaction control system. Two candidate fins were installed on the model during tests: a flat folding fin and a curved wrap around fin. (Author)
