Arrangement of Bodies of Revolution in Supersonic Flow to Reduce Wave Drag

"The wave drag of a combination of slender bodies of revolution at zero angle of attack is studied with a view to determining the arrangements for which the total drag is a minimum. Linearized theory is used to calculate the pressure distribution in the field surrounding the bodies. The interference drag coefficient is computed for different arrangements" (p. 1).
