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

Description: 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

Description: 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.

Lift, Drag, Static Stability, and Buffet Boundaries of a Model of the McDonnell F3H-1N Airplane at Mach Numbers from 0.40 to 1.27, TED No. NACA DE 351

Description: "The National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics has conducted a flight test of a model approximating the McDonnell F3H-1N airplane configuration to determine its pitch-up and buffet boundaries, as well as the usual longitudinal stability derivatives obtainable from the pulsed- tail technique. The test was conducted by the freely flying rocket-boosted model technique developed at the Langley Laboratory; results were obtained at Mach numbers from 0.40 to 1.27 at corresponding Reynolds numbers of… more
