After 5+ years of no rocket building, flying, or designing, I found some time this weekend to design a rocket... called Project AetherOwl (for now). Anyone who knows me, knows that I do not do 3 or 4 fins and a nose cone. Projects that interest me, must be unique, entertaining, and bit challenging to fabricate and build . I like modern weapons system and futuristic designs. This one is envisioned to be a hyper-velocity air superiority weapon. Maybe a US Navy or NATO Air-to-air missile. It could be the sustainer stage for a longshot weapon sytem. It is currently modeled at 48" long, 3" diameter, 8" span, zipperless baffle, dumb rocket, with a 54 mm MMT. I tend to start small, then scale up on the next one. I have not ordered any parts yet, been kind of busy lately. So it will probably only exist as RockSim data now... unless a vendor wants to kit it (it could happen).
