Presented in this report are the results of an investigation to evaluate aerodynamically the use of very low aspect-ratio fins, capped fins and shrouded fins to provide flight stability for the hypervelocity air-to-ground rocket (HAGR) configuration. Static-stability data were obtained for the HAGR configurations at Mach numbers ranging from 0.9 to 7.71.
