AIRCRAFT Russian patent published in 1999 - IPC

FIELD: mechanical engineering. SUBSTANCE: aircraft fuselage is made in vertical longitudinal plane with spindle shaped section; its elliptically has eccentricity rising from frame of maximum coefficient to nose and tail sections. Larger diameter of ellipse is located in horizontal plane. Tail fuselage is articulated for rotation through angle of altitude control. Vertical tail is located on movable fuselage tail section. Turbojet engines are located in nose fuselage in front of center of pressure, center of gravity of application of resultant resistance forces. EFFECT: low drag; enhanced controllability; reduced mass. 2 dwg
