Talk:Diverterless supersonic inlet

MiG-21 have Diverter ?

Why

"Maximum speed of Mach 2"

The article in Lockheed Martin's official magazine states the following:

"The flight tests covered the entire F-16 flight envelope and achieved a maximum speed of Mach 2.0."

Where does this line state that DSI limited the top speed of the aircraft?

In any case, the F-16 already has a top speed of Mach 2. Saying that the DSI limited the top speed is an assumption by the editor. Its like saying a Ferrari that reached 200 mph, after being fitted with a modified air intake, must have been limited by the air intake. Despite the fact that the Ferrari already had a maximum speed of 200 mph. --Hj108 (talk) 13:41, 13 March 2012 (UTC)

The entire reffed Code One article is about the Mach 2.0 limit. If you have a ref from a different source about this then please add it. Hcobb (talk) 22:54, 13 March 2012 (UTC)

My apologies for not reading the article properly, I found it a a while back when I first wrote this wiki. The article does state that "The DSI bump functions as a compression surface and creates a pressure distribution that prevents the majority of the boundary layer air from entering the inlet at speeds up to Mach 2." But is it referring to the design implemented on the F-16 or does this statement apply to any aircraft's DSI? --Hj108 (talk) 13:02, 14 March 2012 (UTC)

They explicitly state that, as far as they know, higher speeds require more complex inlets. So somebody could make a breakthrough, but until then we're stuck with these experts. Hcobb (talk) 17:07, 14 March 2012 (UTC)

DSI Cat yet?

The PLA seems to stick it on every jet fighter they make so can we start cat tagging the articles? Hcobb (talk) 15:02, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

deletion of F-16 from the list of aircraft having DSI and the reason for this

An experimental plane based on an F-16 experimented with DSI. This was mentioned in the article. There is not a single operational F-16 in the world that has DSI. So I removed F-16 from that list.

Lockheed's work was based in no small part on work done by Antonio Ferri in the 1950's: https://patents.google.com/patent/US2990142A/en Fredmdbud (talk) 15:37, 2 August 2020 (UTC)
