Abstract
The graduate program of the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics at the Naval Postgraduate School uniquely supports a comprehensive design program in aircraft, spacecraft, missile, helicopter, and engine design. This paper is focused on four aircraft configuration designs proposed by AA 4273 Military Aircraft Design course team members. The AA 4273 course is, in turn, supported by a growing research program to enhance and further develop the methodology of aircraft design. This design effort has received considerable support from the NASA/USRA Advanced Design Program in Aeronautics. Specifically, two design solutions for a long-range,carrier based, tactical, wave-rider configured fighter/interceptor aircraft are reviewed herein, as are two solutions for a global range military transport. Both types of aircraft were developed as a graduate student team response to specific design RFPs.
