Effects of a sweptback hydrofoil on the force and longitudinal stability characteristics of a typical high-speed airplaneAn investigation was conducted in the Langley 8-foot high-speed tunnel to determine the effects of a sweptback hydrofoil on the force and longitudinal stability characteristics of a typical high-speed airplane. The Mach number range for this investigation was from 0.60 to 0.95 and at M = 1.20. The effects of the hydrofoil on the lift, drag, and pitching-moment characteristics are presented.
