This study analyzes the aerodynamic performance of an F-16 Fighting Falcon wing model before and after attaching a Pegasus XL rocket carrying a nanosatellite through subsonic wind tunnel testing. The 3D-printed PLA model, based on the NACA 64A204 airfoil, was tested at various airspeeds and angles of attack to explore a cost-efficient nanosatellite air-launch method. Results showed that adding the rocket increased the lift coefficient at low to medium angles but also raised drag and caused earlier stall, shifting optimal aerodynamic efficiency from 10° (without rocket) to 6° (with rocket). The rocket-mounted wing is better suited for take-off or climb, while the unmodified wing provides greater stability at high speeds, offering a reference for developing efficient and adaptive air-launch systems using fighter aircraft.
