An experiment has been defined to measure the aeroheating and loads resulting from three dimensional shock wave/boundary layer interference in hypersonic flight. This report describes the definition of this flight experiment, including the instrumentation and electronics required to measure the interference heating and loads and transmit those measurements by telemetry to ground stations. The measurements include quasi-steady heat transfer rates and pressures as well as fluctuating pressures. Additional measurements are specified for specific definition of the experiment environment. The experiment is configured to investigate the interference flow at the base of a stabilizer on a missile launched from an F-4 aircraft. The missile is to be propelled to hypersonic speed by a solid propellant motor and the measurements are to be made at altitudes between 50 KFT and ground impact. The mechanical, structural, and thermal protection system specifications for the experiment carrier missile are provided in this report. Missile design and fabrication drawings are available under separate cover from the sponsoring agency.
