Propulsion concepts, their combinations and system arrangements available show complex problem of selecting most efficient power plant; methodology, developed to cope with problem by Republic Aviation Corp, consists of evaluation and comparison of propulsion systems and selection of most efficient one; parametric preliminary sizing of aircraft with propulsion system selected and aircraft design analysis and parameter optimization; most important parameter in methodology is size of cruise engine; outline of five-step preliminary sizing procedure; procedure to calculate fuel available.
