Thanks everyone. I greatly enjoyed my popcorn.
I extend my greatest gratitude for those who entertained me on this foul, miserable day. Thank you. Hands down the best popcorn I've had this year.
The Boeing CIM-10 Bomarc (IM-99 Weapon System, prior to September 1962),was a supersonic ramjet powered long-range surface-to-air missile (SAM) used during the Cold War for the air defense of North America. In addition to being the first operational long-range SAM and the first operational pulse doppler aviation radar, it was the only SAM deployed by the United States Air Force.
The operational IM-99A missiles were based horizontally in semi-hardened shelters, nicknamed "coffins". After the launch order, the shelter's roof would slide open, and the missile raised to the vertical. After the missile was supplied with fuel for the booster rocket, it would be launched by the Aerojet General LR59-AJ-13 booster. After sufficient speed was reached, the Marquardt RJ43-MA-3 ramjets would ignite and propel the missile to its cruise speed of Mach 2.8 at an altitude of 66,000 ft (20,000 m).
The Bomarc relied on the Semi-Automatic Ground Environment (SAGE), an automated control system used by NORAD for detecting, tracking and intercepting enemy bomber aircraft. SAGE allowed for remote launching of the Bomarc missiles, which were housed in a constant combat-ready basis in individual launch shelters in remote areas. At the height of the program, there were 14 Bomarc sites located in the US and two in Canada.
The Bomarc Missile Program was highly controversial in Canada. The Progressive Conservative government of Prime Minister John Diefenbaker initially agreed to deploy the missiles, and shortly thereafter controversially scrapped the Avro Arrow, a supersonic manned interceptor aircraft, arguing that the missile program made the Arrow unnecessary.
Initially, it was unclear whether the missiles would be equipped with nuclear warheads. By 1960 it became known that the missiles were to have a nuclear payload, and a debate ensued about whether Canada should accept nuclear weapons. Ultimately, the Diefenbaker government decided that the Bomarcs should not be equipped with nuclear warheads. The dispute split the Diefenbaker Cabinet, and led to the collapse of the government in 1963. The Official Opposition and Liberal Party leader Lester B. Pearson originally was against nuclear missiles, but reversed his personal position and argued in favor of accepting nuclear warheads. He won the 1963 election, largely on the basis of this issue, and his new Liberal government proceeded to accept nuclear-armed Bomarcs, with the first being deployed on 31 December 1963. When the nuclear warheads were deployed, Pearson's wife, Maryon, resigned her honorary membership in the anti-nuclear weapons group, Voice of Women.
Canadian operational deployment of the Bomarc involved the formation of two specialized Surface/Air Missile squadrons. The first to begin operations was No. 446 SAM Squadron at RCAF Station North Bay, which was the command and control center for both squadrons. With construction of the compound and related facilities completed in 1961, the squadron received its Bomarcs in 1961, without nuclear warheads. The squadron became fully operational from 31 December 1963, when the nuclear warheads arrived, until disbanding on 31 March 1972. All the warheads were stored separately and under control of Detachment 1 of the USAF 425th Munitions Maintenance Squadron. During operational service, the Bomarcs were maintained on stand-by, on a 24-hour basis, but were never fired, although the squadron test-fired the missiles at Eglin AFB, Florida on annual winter retreats.
@spefyjerbf Yep, thanks. All I wanted was a rough approximation to have the wing flex and deflect without the use of free spin rotators in the game. Like you said, 2D airfoil is nothing like a finite wing, hehe... like making the assumptions of inviscid, incompressible flow over a perfectly flat, 2d surface... At the current stage, i've yet to learn applications of doing anything besides some rough approximations. In other words, I'm in the valley of despair of the dunning kruger effect graph lol. But i guess it works, kinda. I doubt the validity even for an approximation, but like you said, good enough for sp. kek
@edensk Yeah, I'll definitely be retaking that course whenever people here decides to have a bit more sense of responsibility and not have a 4th wave. Taking fluids online was literal hell.
Idrk as I've only studied aerodynamics in my free time so you definitely possess a lot more knowledge than I do
Tbh I doubt I know any better than you, I dropped fluids 3 days before the term course drop deadline because online learning was a shitshow and a half, so my knowledge is limited. My understanding structural analysis and whatnot vastly surpasses my understanding of aerodynamic forces acting on surfaces.
I just wanted to make something that's a bit more than increase load = increase bend but I dont think i'd ultimately use it for anything as of now.
@Lazer22 Yeah of course. Its broken af. There's a bug in the last patch that doesnt recognize that you reloaded, so your loader screams "Ready to fire" repeatedly and doesnt let you fire. Regardless, its fun driving around the map, finding a concrete barrier or a rock of some sorts, and poke out 2 missiles to blast unaware plebs with.
