This report details the 1957-1958 development plan for the Avro Project 1794 VTOL aircraft, a circular-winged supersonic vehicle. It outlines the technical research, testing, and funding requirements for the integration of the P.V. 704 prototype with USAF objectives.
This report confirms the feasibility of a circular, jet-propelled VTOL aircraft (Project 1794/704) capable of Mach 3-4 speeds and altitudes over 100,000 feet. It details extensive wind tunnel testing and outlines the requirements for further development and production.
This report details the 1957-1958 development plan for the Avro Project 1794, a circular-wing VTOL aircraft. It outlines the technical specifications, testing requirements, and funding for the construction of a flying prototype (P.V. 704) under USAF contract.
This report summarizes the successful feasibility study of a circular, jet-propelled VTOL aircraft (Project 1794/704) by Avro Aircraft Limited. It confirms the design's potential for supersonic flight (Mach 3-4) and high-altitude operation, while outlining requirements for further development and testing.
This report evaluates the technical feasibility of the AVRO Project Y2 (Silver Bug) circular aircraft design. It concludes that while the concept is a viable weapon system for dispersed operations, it requires further study before full-scale development.
This 1957 Avro Aircraft Limited technical report details the structural stress analysis of a 1/12 scale model of the P.V. 704 aircraft for wind tunnel testing. It confirms the structural integrity of the model and its support systems for the 'system 606 A' test program.
This is a technical design document for Project 1794, an Avro Aircraft Limited project for a 33-foot diameter ducted fan ramjet aircraft. It details the propulsion, control systems, and performance metrics for an aircraft capable of vertical take-off and supersonic flight.
