The general problem of calculating the flow fields associated with hypersonic airbreathing aircrafts is presented. Unique aspects of hypersonic airplane aerodynamics are introduced and their demands on CFD are outlined. Example calculations associated with inlet/forebody integration and hypersonic nozzle design are presented to illustrate the nature of the problems considered.
