The Tu-22 has a low-middle mounted wing drag at transonic speeds, but resulted in very fast landing speeds and a long take-off run.
22.
The pylons are automatically jettisoned if the wing sweep moves past 26 degrees, which would mean that the aircraft is accelerating towards transonic speeds.
23.
Due to the large propeller diameter, the additional engine speed meant that the propeller tips were pushed to transonic speeds, which required much more power.
24.
Even as they acknowledge the risks of their ventures, Breedlove and Noble say they believe that their cars can operate at transonic speeds or higher.
25.
At transonic speeds ( around Mach 0 . 8 to Mach 1 . 3 ), it has a better lift-to-drag ratio than a conventional wing.
26.
No . 79 Squadron's aircraft commemorated the occasion by conducting a spectacular low-altitude flypast of the base, the first leg of which commenced at transonic speed.
27.
Loss of velocity is important for accurate long-range shots because dropping from supersonic to transonic speeds disturbs the flight of the bullet and adversely affects accuracy.
28.
They flew the Skyrocket with a variety of wing-fence, wing-slat and leading edge chord extension configurations, performing various maneuvers as well as straight-and-level flying at transonic speeds.
29.
It was expected that the rotary wing tip controls would prove greatly superior to the flap type at transonic speeds and provide greater manSuvrability at high altitudes.
30.
At Langley, the thick-section airfoils of the DM1 were found to generate considerable drag at transonic speeds, and a series of experiments followed to try to explore these issues.
