Status Report on Triservice Data Base Extension of Program Missile

Abstract

A status report is given on the development of PROGRAM MISSILE, which is a comprehensive aerodynamic prediction code capable of computing the longitudinal and lateral stability and control characteristics of cruciform body-tail and canard (wing)-body-tail tactical missiles. The methodology used is described and the planned data base extension is outlined. The rational modeling concepts used to extend the fin-body data base to general body-tail and canard- body-tail missiles are presented.
