Effect of several airframe/nozzle modifications on the drag of a variable-sweep bomber configurationA variable sweep bomber aircraft model was investigated to identify modifications for drag reduction. Modifications included simulated two dimensional nozzles, staggered and extended nozzles; short, long, and no interfairings between the nozzles; partial and complete wing-glove fairings; glove-fuselage sidefairing; fuselage underfairing; and wing pods. The variable wing sweep and variable exhaust nozzles of the scale model are discussed.
