The effect of specific configuration changes on the longitudinal and lateral-directional characteristics of the MSC-040-A Space Shuttle Orbiter was investigated. Essential configuration changes included the design of the vertical tail, a wider forward fuselage, and the aerodynamic shaping of the wing ACPS pods. Results of this investigation are summarized. In addition, the effect of Reynolds number and transition on the flow development on the Orbiter is demonstrated. (Author)
