The report describes a digital computer program system that is capable of calculating the supersonic and hypersonic aerodynamic characteristics of complex arbitrary three-dimensional shapes. This program is identified as the Mark IV Supersonic-Hypersonic Arbitrary-Body Computer Program. This program is a complete reorganization and expansion of the old Mark III Hypersonic Arbitrary-Body Program. The Mark IV program has a number of new capabilities that extend its applicability down into the supersonic speed range.
