Description:
A comprehensive computer code has been developed for the prediction of the static aerodynamic characteristics of cruciform wing-body combinations with one or two sets of fins. The code may be used for subsonic, transonic, and supersonic speeds. Arbitrary bank angles and control deflections are allowed. The present version of the code may be used for angles of attack up to 20 deg. The code computes the forces and moments acting on each component of the missile including the effects of vortices shed by the body and fins. Comparisons between experiment and theory indicate good agreement for longitudinal characteristics and fair to good agreement for lateral characteristics.
