This glossary of aerospace terms does not represent the official opinion, interpretation or prescribed term usage of the DOD or the USAF. The word list has been arrived at by noting words and phrases spoken by people engaged in research, development, and operations, and also by noting terms found in the current periodical and book literature of missiles astronautics, and related fields. Students should use it as a guide to the specialized vocabulary that deals with aerospace missiles and vehicles, there employment and the physical laws that govern them. A clean very presentable copy.
