Tests were performed in the Langley Unitary Plan wind tunnel to determine the drag and static longitudinal and lateral stability and control characteristics of a 1/20-scale model of the McDonnell F4H-1 airplane at Mach numbers of 1 57, 1 87, 2.16, and 2.53. This is the second phase in a series of tests performed on this model. The Reynolds numbers for these tests, based on the mean aerodynamic chord of the wing, are 1.446 x 10 (exp 6), 1.269 x 10 (exp 6), 1.116 x 10 (exp 6), and 0.714 x 10 (exp 6) at Mach numbers of 1.57, 1.87, 2.16, and 2.53, respectively. The model had a 12 deg. wing tip dihedral, a larger vertical tail, and a modified duct.
