Extension of manned, maneuvering flight into Mach 2-3 regime disclosed series inlet/engine compatibility problems not adequately predicted by analysis or laboratory testing; extension of operational flight to Mach 3.5 or 4.5 by future aircraft will amplify compatibility problems; fundamental problems of inlet/ engine system involve airflow matching, pressure distortion, and unsteady flow; in all cases, increasing design Mach number increases severity of these problems and will place greater demands upon all components of propulsion system; some guidelines for compatibility program are outlined showing that five test conditions can give high degree of assurance of relatively trouble-free and successful flight test program.
