The Air Force Research Laboratory Munitions Directorate (AFRL/MN) is presently involved in many aspects of micro aerial vehicle (MAV) research. Among these are: advanced modeling and simulation models for MAVs, aero- structural interaction, advanced guidance techniques, hardware-in-the-loop simulations, and vehicle integration. In order to optimize collaboration within AFRL and also with outside research organizations, it was decided that a common MAV configuration be designed that would serve as a reference for current and future research. This paper describes a generic micro air vehicle that will serve as a 'baseline' configuration. The MAV design incorporates a circular fuselage, a thin cambered wing, and a conventional tail. The MAV has a wingspan of 24 inches and a fuselage length of 17 inches. This paper will also detail the rational behind the design as well as provide initial aerodynamic properties and flight performance characteristics of the AFRL Generic MAV, herein called 'GENMAV.'.
