Interestingly enough, several of these hydrodynamic adaptations resemble features designed to improve the aerodynamics of high-speed aircraft.

Air Force-funded researchers at HRL Laboratories in Malibu, Calif., are working on holographic impedance surfaces for antennas that will give aircraft improved aerodynamics.

In this paper, the initial stage in application of fuzzy logic to aircraft high-Angle-of attack aerodynamics using wind tunnel test data is outlined.
