This report describes the preliminary design and analysis for an advanced air superiority fighter stores loaded, wet wing structure. The wing box of the F-111F airplane designed by the Convair Aerospace Division of General Dynamics was used as the baseline vehicle. A unique design methodology was followed to arrive at three configurations which offer an optimum balance between structural efficiency and technological advancement. This methodology consists of compiling element concepts; integrating them into cross-section drawings; optimizing them in analytical assemblies; and finally preparing full wing box designs. Each step was followed with a detailed evaluation and ranking step which utilized a formal merit rating system. This system permitted the evaluation of numerous concepts and insured that each technical discipline participated in the design selection. (Modified author abstract)
