One hundred and nineteen Ballute-stabilized bomb configurations were studied to determine the feasibility of ram air-inflated Ballutes as stabilizers or decelerators for various tactical missions. Both subsonic and transonic wind tunnel tests were conducted to define static and dynamic aerodynamic characteristics. (Author)
