Tests results showed that drag of test body rose from 0.060 atmospheric pressure at M=0.89 to 0.167 atmospheric pressure at M=1.02, and increased to 0.233 at M=1.19. At near sonic speed, drag or tested wing rose to dobule the value estimated from previous tests. Body drags measureed were higher than those obtained in previous tests of an identical body without wings.
