Comparison of Store Airloads from 5.0 and 7.5 percent F-15 Wind Tunnel Tests

Abstract

This report compares 5.0 and 7.5 percent scale aerodynamic force and moment data from external stores on the F-15 aircraft. The data was obtained at Mach numbers 0.80, 0.95, 1.05, and 1.20. Angles of attack tested were -6, -4, - 2, 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20 degrees with angles of sideslip -8, 0, +8 degrees. Data taking hysteresis effects are also explored, as well as inboard pylon to centerline pylon effects on the data.
