Low speed static force tests have been conducted in a full scale tunnel to determine the low speed aerodynamic characteristics of a 1/10-scale model of a blended-arrow supersonic cruise aircraft. A clean configuration and a high lift configuration with several combinations of leading- and trailing-edge flaps to provide improved lift and longitudinal stability in the landing and takeoff modes were used. The tests were made at angles of attack from about -6 deg to 30 deg, sideslip angles from -5 deg to 10 deg, and Reynolds numbers from 6.78 x 1 million to 13.85 x 1 million corresponding to test velocities of 41 to 85 knots.
