Current trends in military combat aircraft are towards increased emphasis on multi-mission capability which requires engine sizing at flight conditions other than those of basic missions, such as for short takeoff, for acceleration/climb capability in combat, or for supersonic capability; assessment is made of magnitude of inlet drag associated with oversized engines; paper attempts to simplify engine cycle by examining flow matching of inlet with initial component of augmented turbofan engine -- fan; flow requirements are established for fan and effects on performance and stability explored without regard to turbine and exhaust nozzle matching needs.
