An Experimental Study on the Aerodynamic Characteristics of a Stealth Configuration

An experimental study of the aerodynamic characteristics of a stealth configuration, the test techniques developed for the testing in the Low Speed Wind Tunnel of Agency for Defense Development(ADD-LSWT), and the lessons learned have been presented. The main objectives of this test are to determine the aerodynamic characteristics of a stealth configuration and to measure the flow field characteristics with a 5-hole pressure probe. The test results are discussed and the effect of the leading edge shape on the aerodynamic characteristics is also given.
