Approximate analytical method of calculating the trajectories of an aircraft in the atmosphere

An approximate method of calculating the trajectories of an aircraft in the atmosphere is proposed which takes into account the ablation of the aircraft mass and rotation of the planet. The effectiveness of the method is shown in the calculation of aircraft in the high-density atmosphere at high vel...

Description
Summary:An approximate method of calculating the trajectories of an aircraft in the atmosphere is proposed which takes into account the ablation of the aircraft mass and rotation of the planet. The effectiveness of the method is shown in the calculation of aircraft in the high-density atmosphere at high velocities. The results are illustrated by a number of numerical examples.
