Static Longitudinal and Lateral Stability Characteristics of a Right Triangular Pyramidal Lifting Reentry Configuration at Transonic SpeedsThe static longitudinal and lateral stability characteristics of a right triangular pyramidal lifting reentry configuration have been investigated at Mach numbers from 0.60 to 1.19 for angles of attack up to 27.3 deg. The lower surfaces of the model had a dihedral angle of 45 deg, and the upper surface was flat. The leading-edge sweep of the model was 79.5 deg.
