Review of developments in manned lifting-body research vehicles centers on hypersonic lift-drag ratio (L/D) and landing mode because of their role in shaping entry vehicles once crew and payload requirements are specified; possible operational uses that demand some within-atmosphere maneuverability of entry vehicles are considered together with mission implications; landing mode concepts employing decoupled modes and concepts for conventional landing; among decoupled modes receiving attention are gliding parachute with impact-attenuation systems, limp paraglider, rotor (autorotative and powered) and sustained propulsive lift; semi-decoupled approaches under study deploying stowed wings at subsonic speeds.
