The design of a high aspect ratio HALE aircraft composite wing. part I: static strength analysis / Bambang K. Hadi, Muhammad A. Ghofur and IndraPermana
High Altitude Long Endurance (HALE) UAV is a type of aircraft that is able to fly in high operational altitude (±65,000 ft) and longer duration (±36 hours). This aircraft uses a high aspect ratio wing, up to 25. In this paper, the design of a high aspect ratio wing will be performed. The Global Hawk...
