Zusammenfassung:Developments and possibilities in supersonic flight, pilotless aircraft, propulsion methods (including atomic energy, jets, and rockets), tailless aircraft, radar, and infrared radiation are summarized. More supersonic wind-tunnel and flight-test research is recommended along with study of super sonic launching and landing problems, winged guided missiles, and heat seeking devices. Flow measurement techniques, laminar flow, and boundary layer control are also discussed. Diagrams, chart, and Schlieren photographs present empirical and theoretical data regarding these subjects.
