摘要:
An aircraft (10) includes a fuselage (17) with structural interfaces for connection to any one or more of a variety of vertical tails, horizontal tails and canards. Vertical tails, horizontal tails and/or canards of different sizes, shapes, sweep angles, box chords, and/or root chords may connect to the fuselage (17) without changing the structural layout or configuration of the fuselage (17) structural interfaces.

A trajectory control system includes a first control mechanism having a pair of outputs operably associated with a first pair of control surfaces, the first control mechanism operable to articulate the first pair of control surfaces in unison and a second control mechanism having a pair of outputs operably associated with a second pair of control surfaces, the second control mechanism operable to articulate the second pair of control surfaces in unison. The second control mechanism is nested in the first control mechanism such that the pair of outputs of the first control mechanism is substantially coplanar with the pair of outputs of the second control mechanism.

An aircraft includes a fuselage, a main wing pivotally coupled to an aft portion of the fuselage, and a canard coupled to a forward portion of fuselage, wherein the main wing and the canard are configured to be connected together for supersonic flight and disconnected from each other for subsonic flight.

A flight vehicle includes a fuselage 10 having a consumable fuel supply 18,12, main wings 12 each with an elevon 14 and a pair of jettisonable foreplanes 16. The foreplanes provide lift at take-off and during transonic flight and, at higher supersonic speeds they are jettisoned.

The object of the invention is an aircraft provided with a device for creating a constant moment in relation to the axis of rotation of an additional control surface placed at the front of the aircraft at an as large as possible distance from the centre of gravity of the aircraft. The aircraft is characterised in that the control of the aerodynamic vertical force (7) is effected by deflecting control elements (3) pivotably mounted on the rotation axis (4), the deflection of said control elements causing rotation of a balance and control surface (1) mounted rotatably on axis (2), wherein the axis (2) is mounted perpendicularly to the plane of symmetry (5) of aircraft (6) forward of the resultant aerodynamic vertical force (7) generated by the balance and control surface (1).
