During development of an advanced air-breathing missile system, wind tunnel measurements revealed problems in obtaining desired repeatability of drag measurements. Other problems arose regarding representation of the full scale vehicle in the wind tunnel tests. This paper describes these anomalies and the techniques used to minimize apparent data variations and determination of the nominal vehicle drag level.(Buehn)
