An investigation in the MSFC TWT to determine spoiler effects on wing loads and elevon hinge moments utilizing 0.004-scale models (77-0 and 74-OTS) of the shuttle vehicle 5 configuration (IA125)Information is presented for wind tunnel tests (IA125) of a 0.004-scale orbiter, external tank, and solid rocket motor integrated vehicle model (77-0 and 74-OTS) in the MSFC Trisonic Wind Tunnel. These tests were conducted in support of MCR's 1344 and 1346. Data from these tests provide spoiler effects on wing bending/torsion and elevon hinge moments, elevon effectiveness data and the influence of solid plumes from Mach numbers of 0.6 through 2.74 at angles of attack and sideslip from -10 through 10 degrees.
