Experimental aerodynamic investigations were conducted in the NASA/Ames 3.5-Foot Hypersonic wind Tunnel during the interim April 9-18, 1973 on a 0.015-scale model of the Rockwell International Space Shuttle Orbiter, configuration 2A. Six component aerodynamic force and moment data were recorded over an angle of attack range from -3 deg to 42 deg at 0 deg angle of sideslip and from -10 deg to 10 deg sideslip at 0 deg and 45 deg constant angle of attack. Test Mach numbers were 5.27 and 7.32 at unit Reynolds number of 2.5 million per foot. Various elevon, rudder, speedbrake, and body flap deflections were tested to determine longitudinal and lateral-directional stability characteristics and to establish trim capability.
