Boost-glider model
Definition
An experimental mockup or small-scale model of a hybrid aerospace vehicle, structurally designed to combine the aerodynamic characteristics of an aircraft (wings, gliding flight) with the reactive propulsion force specific to a rocket. This type of model is used in aeromodelling and rocketmodelling competitions to study dynamic behavior during vertical launch and controlled return phases.
