The effect of canard relative size and vertical location on the subsonic longitudinal and lateral-directional static aerodynamic characteristics for a model with a swept forward wing

A general research fighter model was tested in the Langley 7- by 10-foot high speed tunnel at a Mach number of 0.3. The model was tested with a 32 deg swept forward wing mounted in mid-, low-, and high-wing positions. For the mid-wing configuration, the model was tested with a 51.7 deg swept back canard mounted in mid-, low-, and high-canard positions. For the mid-wing mid-canard and the mid-wing high-canard configurations, canards of similar planform having two different areas were tested. The angle-of-attack range was from approximately -4 deg to 48 deg at sideslip angles of 0 deg, -5 deg, and 5 deg.
