An overview is presented of the recent in-house and contractual efforts in the area of transonic unsteady aerodynamics for aeroelasticity at the Flight Dynamics Directorate of the USAF Wright Laboratory. Three major topics are discussed. The first topic, analytical unsteady aerodynamics, involves the application of both transonic small disturbance and Euler/Navier-Stokes codes to fighter-type aircraft. Aeroelastic calculations made with these codes are compared with test results. The second topic involves a description of unsteady pressure testing in the NLR tunnel in the Netherlands. Finally, the plan for incorporating transonic unsteady aerodynamics into structural redesign is presented.
