Summary of the Lift, Drag, and Stability of 1/10-Scale Rocket-Boosted Models of the McDonnell XF3H-1 Airplane for a Mach Number Range of 0.6 to 1.4 as Affected by the Operation of Extensible Rocket Racks

Report discussing an investigation of the McDonnell XF3H-1 with models to determine the aerodynamic effects of operating internally stowed extensible rocket racks during transonic flight. Information about the flutter, static longitudinal stability, dynamic longitudinal stability, static directional stability, trim, drag, and effect of rocket racks on aerodynamic characteristics of the model is provided.

Summary of the lift, drag, and stability of 1/10-scale rocket-boosted models of the McDonnell XF3H-1 airplane for a Mach number range of 0.6 to 1.4 as affected by the operation of extensible rocket racks : TED No. NACA DE 351

Report presenting a flight investigation using two rocket-boosted scale models of the McDonnell XF3H-1 airplane to determine the aerodynamic effects of operating internally stowed extensible rocket racks during transonic flight. Operation of the racks generally had only a small effect on the aerodynamic characteristics with the exception of drag.
