The longitudinal dynamic behavior of the airplane during sinniLated combat maneuversat altitudes of 30,oOO to 40,000 feet was not considered satisfactory, especially at supersonic speeds, because of insufficient pitch aRmping. The addition of the wing-tip extensions caused a sl

The airplane was not equipped wlth an automatic pitch damper. The data for the original-wing and extended wing-tip configuretiom were obtained with

The effects of the changes in the vertical tails on the lon;itudinal stability character- istics are considered negligible. The airplane is equipped wlth automatic leading-edge slats installed as fi

At 40,000 feet, the slats were open at bhch numbers below 0.84 for steady flight; the slats started to apen n response to air loads at angles of attack of bo, 5O, 7O, and 8O, at Mach numbers of 0.84, 0.9, 1.03, and 1.08, respectively. At 20,000 feet, the slats were open a

The estimated mation with airplane weight of the moment of Inertia relative to the pitch axis (fig. 3) is based on the manufac- turers estimate for design weight and empty weight conditions (ref. 5) . Standard NACA instruments were used. to record airspeed, altitude, pitch

The angle of attack, airspeed, and altitude were sensed on the nose boom. All records were synchronized st 0.1-second intervals by a common timing circuit. The pitch turn

19、meter used to measure the pitching velocity and acceleration is cansidered accurate to within M.5 percent of range. The turnmeter mounting direction error is 0.50 or less. The indicated normal acceleraneter readLngs were corrected to the center of gravlty. The accelerometer is considered accurate to

20、 within m.5 percent of range. The vane-type pickup for measurSng the angle of attack was EBBS balanced and had dynamically flat response characteristics over the frequency rmge of the airplane.
