Memorandum presenting an investigation conducted in the 4- by 4-foot supersonic pressure tunnel to determine the aerodynamic characteristics of a supersonic aircraft configuration equipped with a canard control surface at a Mach number of 1.89. The model had a 40 degree sweptback tapered wing with an aspect ratio of 4 and 10-percent-thick circular-arc sections normal to the quarter-chord line. Results regarding the pitching-moment characteristics, lift and longitudinal-force characteristics, longitudinal stability and control, and lateral stability characteristics are provided
