A numerical method for the estimation of leading edge thrust for supersonic wings of arbitrary planform was developed and was programmed as an extension to an existing high speed digital computer method for prediction of wing pressure distributions. The accuracy of the method was assessed by comparison with linearized theory results for a series of flat delta wings. Application of the method to wings of arbitrary planform, both flat and cambered, is illustrated in several examples.
