Abstract :
Localized RCS measurements are presented for the Boeing 727 and the Lockheed L-1011 aircraft. The measurements were made at X-band from a few degrees aft of broadside. The elevation angle was approximately 30°. Four data sets, each of 128 pulses, were obtained from each airplane examined. The data presented are composites of measurements of five Boeing 727s and three L-1011s
