| Abstract | Abstract : Tests were conducted in the Aerodynamic Wind Tunnel (4T) using 0.05- scale models to investigate the separation characteristics of the SUU-51 Laser- Guided Dispenser Munition (LGDM) with fixed tail fins from several carriage configurations of the F-4C aircraft. Releases were studied from the outboard and inboard pylons and from Triple Ejection Rack and Multiple Ejection Rack locations on the inboard and centerline pylons, respectively. Captive-trajectory store separation data were obtained at Mach numbers from 0.66 to 0.90 and a simulated altitude of 5000 ft. At selected test conditions, a parent-aircraft dive angle of 45 deg was simulated. Free-stream force and moment data were also obtained on the SUU-51 (LGDM) model at Mach numbers of 0.66 and 0.90 at store angles of attack from -6 to 24 deg. Generally, the store initially separated from the parent aircraft without store-to-parent contact with most of the trajectories manually terminated. Changing fuel tank positions improved some undesirable trajectories. |
