However, applications involving a traditional horizontal take-off and landing require the vehicle to fly from low subsonic speeds up to the design hypersonic Mach number. In preparation for a low speed flight test program, a modified scaled model of the Hexafly-International Mach 7.4 waverider has been built and tested in the University of Sydney 7&#215;5 Low Speed Wind Tunnel to evaluate its static stability and performance. CFD played a supporting role in flow visualisation which was otherwise not possible to achieve through tunnel tests alone. Results to date indicate that the vehicle is stable, trimmable and can cruise at a speed suitable for remote piloting. In addition, the required speed and angle of attack for take-off and landing are within acceptable limits, giving confidence in the feasibility of the proposed low speed flight test program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/lirias.kuleuven.be\/retrieve\/536280\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/aerospacerepository.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/hisst-2018_1620842.pdf\">Read the full paper from the KU Leuven website &gt; <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><b>T.
