A 0.04-scale model of the Saturn V Missile was tested at transonic Mach numbers to determine Reynolds number effects on static stability characteristics and pressure distributions in the tail barrel region at high angles of attack. Reynolds number based on the model diameter varied from 0.9 to 8.4 million. Angle of attack was varied from -3 to 16 deg. The center of pressure varied with angle of attack over a distance of approximately one model diameter. (Author)
