THE WAVERIDER. A HYPERSONIC CRUISE VEHICLE,

Abstract

A summary of current European activities in the use of waveriders as a practical approach to the aerodynamic design of hypersonic cruise vehicles is presented. Various methods of lifting surface design are discussed, and some comparisons with experimental observations are made. (Author)
