An investigation has been made in the Langley transonic blowdown tunnel at Mach numbers between 0.84 and 1.32 at an angle of attack of zero degrees to determine the pressure-drag reductions attainable on a sweptback-wing - fuselage configuration tested consisted of a 45 degree sweptback wing of aspect ratio 4 in combination with a fineness-ratio-6.7 body. The results indicate that the pressure drag of a practical sweptback-wing - body configuration depends on the body cross-sectional shape as well as upon the longitudinal distribution of cross-sectional area.
