The basic overall scope of the Lewis High Performance Aircraft Propulsion Research and Technology effort is presented. High performance fighter aircraft of interest include supersonic fighters with such capabilities as short take off and vertical landing (STOVL) and/or high maneuverability. The effort is primarily focused on component-level experimental and analytical research. This research is designed to provide databases for verification of design technology and for calibration of the CFD tools available for design use. Examples from each of the research areas are discussed, and a brief look at future directions for high performance aircraft research and technology is presented.
