Engine-airframe integrated hypersonic waveriders have been optimized previously for both cruising flight and accelerators using inverse design flowfields to provide desirable aerodynamic performance and inlet properties. With engine installation, cruisers retain the high L/D advantages of the basic waverider form. To provide an understanding of waverider optimizer trends, an analytical development is presented which includes the presentation of a simplified model of a generic waverider shape. The model is shown to have good agreement with computational results, and it is used to demonstrate engineering tradeoffs in L/D, volume, and volume efficiency. Based on the demonstrated performance trends, and considering the desirability of uniform inlet flow, an improved waverider shape for engine-airframe integration is proposed using a hybrid cone-wedge generating flowfield.
