File ID# 391
Manufacturer N/A
Model SST Model 1.1 (Revised)
Units Dimensionless
Description This is the revised version of my previous design. A slight wing droop/anhedral was added to aid stability in low-speed high AoA flights. The total wing area increased (both lengthwise and spanwise) and the body was also lengthened to allow space for a front entrance door. The wing curvature was improved and became a bit smoother but it's still not as much as I wanted it to be. The Quiet Spike was also redesigned, with reference to some basic diagrams found on one of NASA's papers on NTRS. I still haven't figured out how to make an S-intake so it's not completely finished yet, but it's the most I can do at the moment.
Source Quality

5 - The source material used to create this model was Completely Inaccurate. This means the creator thought of the vehicle or part as he or she made the model, but did not use any pictures or drawings and had no dimensions.

I've just realised that the scale is totally messed up... I don't know what happened... I will edit it as soon as possible.

I forgot to change the position of the wing in the previous post (#390) so I re-uploaded the new version after making the small change.
