Summary The objective of this effort is to leverage the Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) knowledge and experience to develop efficient methods for six degree-of-freedom (6-DOF) missile aerodynamic coefficient estimation using emerging scientific concepts and the latest computational tools. The specific task is to develop a method and estimation aerodynamic coefficients for a generic SA-family missile with modified nose geometry.
