Abstract
In the present paper, we analyze a suggestion implying the use of the aeroballistic technique for carrying out studies of shock-wave (sonic-boom) characteristics at large distances from the freely flying model. An analysis of the main engineering solutions ensuring the possibility of implementing the proposed experimental facility in the range of flight velocities of examined models from one to two Mach numbers is performed. A list of scientific and engineering problems pertaining to the study of sonic-boom characteristics in the middle and far zones which can be experimentally tackled with the help of the proposed facility is presented.
