An historical evaluation is made of the most significant developments in the use of wind tunnels for the development and analysis of missiles and aircraft since the 1940s. In addition to being instrumental in the discovery of unknown aerodynamic, aeroelastic and aerothermodynamic phenomena, wind tunnels have helped in the explanation of numerous effects, the development of new configurations and systems, and the furnishing of critical initial performance evaluations for a broad spectrum of aircraft and missiles. Attention is given to low speed planform tests, body-wing-tail studies, variable sweep wing investigations, transonic characteristics and problems, supersonic trim drag, and supersonic pitch-up, area ruling, and inlet effects.
