This paper reviews aerodynamic drag reduction for friction, wave and vortex drag associated with supersonic cruise aircraft and suggests approaches and research directions. Suction laminar flow control may also enable improved low-speed, high-lift systems, improved lift-to-drag ratio for subsonic cruise, reduced parasitic viscous drag for favorable interference wave drag reduction approaches, and turbulent skin friction reduction via slot injection. Flow separation control at cruise proffers opportunities for increased leading-edge thrust, increased lift increment from upper surface, increased fuselage lift/camber for wave drag-due-to-lift reduction, improved performance of various favorable interference wave drag reduction schemes, as well as possibly better low-speed, high-lift systems and wing cruise performance.
