This report has been produced in order to address aerodynamic characteristics and stability and control issues relating to hypersonic vehicles that are deemed to be significantly different from those of the conventional (subsonic or supersonic) air vehicles. In particular we have addressed issues that are relevant to stability and control of hypersonic vehicles. This report should add to the existing knowledge of missile guidance and control engineers and make, other researchers and engineers involved in hypersonic experimentation, aware that these vehicles may not be dynamically stable and require active control augmentation in order to achieve and maintain desirable flight characteristics.
