Aerospace technology in its present form has developedalong certain basic principles of aerodynamic forces. Differentparts in an airplane have different functions to balance theaircraft in air, provide a thrust, and control the general mechanisms.Profusely illustrated descriptions provide a picture of whatkinds of aircraft are used for cargo, passenger travel, bombing, and supersonicflights. Propulsion principles and descriptions of differentkinds of engines are quite helpful. At the end of each chapter,new terminology is listed.

Loftin, Arch McCleskey, Patricia Thomas Art Direction and Production: Anne G. Anderson This summer marks the 25th anniversary of the first flight of the Lockheed Hercules; a Volume 6, No. 3, July - September 1979 quarter century of service to nations throughout the world! Over 1,550 Hercules (C-130s Vol. 6, No. 3, July. September 1979 and L-100) have been delivered to 44 countries. We at Lockheed are very proud of this Contents: record and the reputation the Hercules has earned. It is a reputation built on depend- ability, versatility, and durability. 2 Focal Point The Hercules is a true workhorse. Many developing countries depend on it to carry all types of cargo, from lifesaving food to road-building equipment. They carry these cargoes to remote areas that are not easily accessible by any other mode of transporta- 3 tion. An additional advantage is its ability to land and take off in incredibly short 3 Crew Door Rigging distances, even on unpaved clearings. The tasks the Hercules is capable of accomplishing are almost limitless; from hunting hurricanes, to flying mercy relief missions. It is the universal airborne platform. And it is 14 Royal Norwegian Air Force energy-efficient, using only about half the fuel a comparable jet aircraft would require. 15 One of the more interesting aspects of these 25 years is that while the external design of 15 Hydraulic Pressure Drop the aircraft has changed very little, constant improvements in systems and avionics equip- ment have made the world’s outstanding cargo airplane also among the world’s most modern.

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE OFFICE OF SPACE COMMERCIALIZATION Herbert C. Hoover Building 14th and Constitution Ave., NW Washington, DC 20230 (202) 482-6125, 482-5913 Contract No. SB1359-01-Z-0020 PUBLIC RELEASE IS AUTHORIZED Preface This report has been prepared by The Aerospace Corporation for the Department of Commerce, Office of Space Commercialization, under contract #SB1359-01-Z-0020. The objective of this report is to characterize suborbital reusable launch vehicle (RLV) concepts currently in development, and define the military, civil, and commercial missions and markets that could capitalize on their capabilities. The structure of the report includes a brief background on orbital vs. suborbital trajectories, as well as an overview of expendable and reusable launch vehicles. Current and emerging market opportunities for suborbital RLVs are identified and discussed. Finally, the report presents the technical aspects and program characteristics of selected U.S. and international suborbital RLVs in development. The appendix at the end of this report provides further detail on each of the suborbital vehicles, as well as the management biographies for each of the companies. The integration of suborbital RLVs with existing airports and/or spaceports, though an important factor that needs to be evaluated, was not the focus of this effort. However, it should be noted that the RLV concepts discussed in this report are being designed to minimize unique facility requirements.

Calculate the takeoff ground roll distance assuming no flaps are used for takeoff and that minimum takeoff distance conditions are used during the ground roll. Must calculate the conditions on the ground: However, units must be SI units so: and Then and The ground effect on the induced drag parameter K. Then the correction factor N is given by and Therefore This is the ground drag polar! For minimum distance takeoff, the proper ground lift coefficient is given by: The corresponding drag coefficient is determined from the ground drag polar” We can now calculate the constants in the takeoff equations: We need to calculate the reference speeds: Finally the takeoff distance can be calculated from: 52. Calculate the landing ground roll distance for this aircraft assuming a full flap landing and that zero lift occurs during the ground roll, and that brakes are applied at touch-down (short field landing in which you retract the flaps and hit the brakes as soon as possible after touch-down). Here we will assume that we land with flaps so we need to calculate new reference airspeeds: Ground run, no flaps.

The companies’ propulsion systems have helped to strengthen national defense, launch astronauts into space, and propel unmanned spacecraft to explore the universe. ➢ Aerojet’s diverse rocket propulsion systems have powered military vehicles for decades – from rocket-assisted takeoff for propeller airplanes during World War II – through today’s powerful intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs). The systems helped land men on the moon, and maneuvered spacecraft beyond our solar system. ➢ For years, Rocketdyne engines have played a major role in national defense, beginning with powering the United States’ first ICBM to sending modern military communication satellites into orbit. Rocketdyne’s technology also helped launch manned moon missions, propelled space shuttles, and provided the main power system for the International Space Station (ISS). ➢ In 2013, these two rocket propulsion manufacturers became Aerojet Rocketydne, blending expertise and vision to increase efficiency, lower costs, and better compete in the market. Now, as an industry titan, Aerojet Rocketdyne’s talented, passionate employees collaborate to create even greater innovations that protect America and launch its celestial future. 2011 A Standard Missile-3 (SM-3) interceptor is being developed as part of the U.S. Missile Defense Agency’s sea-based Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense System.

Exariple~of powered-lift teat prngrame are preeented in order to illustrate rradeoffs confronting the planner of V/STOL test program. It is indicated that large-scale V/STOL wind-tunnel testing can sometimes compete with small-scale testing in the effort required (overall test time) and program costa because of the possibility of conducting a number of different tests with a single large-scale model where several small-scale models would be reql~ired.
