Step 1 Payload Calculations, WPL Notes/Sources:

Ammunition Weight (1.62 lbs x 2000 rounds) 3,240 lbs Source: "2006-2007 AIAA Graduate Team Aircraft Design Competition - Modifiied RFP"
Internal Stores Max 5,000 lbs GD GAU-8 30-mm Cannon is part of weight empty
External Stores Max 12,000 lbs External Stores is deemed the limiting case
Total WPL 12,000 lbs Enter Payload based on above values, and Desired Mission (for baseline misson, assume worst case external stores)

 Mission Analysis

Step 1 Payload Calculations, WPL Notes/Sources:

Ammunition Weight (1.62 lbs x 2000 rounds) 3,240 lbs Source: "2006-2007 AIAA Graduate Team Aircraft Design Competition - Modifiied RFP"
Internal Stores Max 5,000 lbs GD GAU-8 30-mm Cannon is part of weight empty
External Stores Max 12,000 lbs External Stores is deemed the limiting case
Total WPL 12,000 lbs Enter Payload based on above values, and Desired Mission (for baseline misson, assume worst case external stores)

Crew Weight
Crew (1x250lbs) 250 lbs Source: "2006-2007 AIAA Graduate Team Aircraft Design Competition - Modifiied RFP"
Total WCREW 250 lbs

Step 2 Weight Take Off Guess Based on Historical Data, WTO_GUESS

Aircraft Type W_PL W_TO V_MAX Range Source: Taylor, J.W.R, Jane's All The World Aircraft Published Annually by: Jane's Publishing Company, (Issues used: 1945/45, 1968/84)
(lbs) (lbs) (kts) (nm) Source: Roskam, "Airplane Design, Part I: Preliminary Sizing of Airplanes", 1985, pg 60
F.R. A10A 15,000 50,000 450 540
Grumman A6 17,000 60,400 689 1,700
Tornado F.Mk2 16,000 58,400 600 750
Average: 16,000 56,267 580 997 Some initial guess for TOGW, will only be used for reference, program automatically calculates TOGW based on historical data
WTO_GUESS 59,488 lbs Later this will be iterated to find weight empty

Range Credit 24.5000001 nm Assume 10,000 ft/min climb (from RFP) and 350 knot ground speed during climb (from Roskam page 62); therefore, Rclimb = Alt./(10K/min)*350knots
Cruise 1
Rcr, Cruise Range 775.5 nm 800 nm specified in RFP - climb 1 range
Altitude 42,000 ft
Temperature @ Alt, T -90.6 o F
Delta 0.1668
Theta 0.7116
 Mission Analysis

Step 1 Payload Calculations, WPL Notes/Sources:

Ammunition Weight (1.62 lbs x 2000 rounds) 3,240 lbs Source: "2006-2007 AIAA Graduate Team Aircraft Design Competition - Modifiied RFP"
Internal Stores Max 5,000 lbs GD GAU-8 30-mm Cannon is part of weight empty
External Stores Max 12,000 lbs External Stores is deemed the limiting case
Total WPL 12,000 lbs Enter Payload based on above values, and Desired Mission (for baseline misson, assume worst case external stores)

Crew Weight
Crew (1x250lbs) 250 lbs Source: "2006-2007 AIAA Graduate Team Aircraft Design Competition - Modifiied RFP"
Total WCREW 250 lbs

Step 2 Weight Take Off Guess Based on Historical Data, WTO_GUESS

Tornado F.Mk2 16,000 58,400 600 750
Average: 16,000 56,267 580 997 Some initial guess for TOGW, will only be used for reference, program automatically calculates TOGW based on historical data
WTO_GUESS 62,414 lbs Later this will be iterated to find weight empty
