Abstract:
The report presents the results of a series of tests in Convairs high-speed wind tunnel to evaluate the stability of the HETS 609A recovery vehicle in the transonic regime. The tests were run with two nose configurations at Mach numbers 0.52, 0.61, 0.67, 0.82, and 0.96. Both configurations were sufficiently stable to permit parachute deployment down to Mach 0.6. Author
