Vendetta Final Proposal Part 2 - Cal Poly

11.2 Turn Rate Requirement
The maximum instantaneous turn rate requirement of 8.0 deg/s at 15,000 ft and Mach 0.9 is shown in the
maneuverability diagram in Figure 11.6. The maneuverability diagram shows that the required turn rate can be sustained
with military power. The maximum sustainable turn rate using afterburner is 11.8 deg/s. The maneuverability diagram
at sea-level required as a measure of merit is shown in Figure 11.7.
