This account reminds me of the same issue that Lockheed faced in the design of the SR-71 Blackbird. They had to figure out the design of the 'spikes' and engine inlet systems that controlled inflow to the engines for the aircraft that still holds many speed records (Mach 3), to this day [1]. It was an enormous engineering challenge. I think this work was all done in the 60's. 0 - https://internationalaviationhq.com/2020/08/29/ben-rich-father-of-stealth/ https://internationalaviationhq.com/2020/08/29/ben-rich-fath... 1 - http://www.sr71.us/srrcd~1.htm http://www.sr71.us/srrcd~1.htm
