All this takes me back. 😁
1/2Rho*V^2*S was etched into my brain as an apprentice. Seeing it used in these calculations brings a warm fuzzy feeling, I just wish I'd paid more attention in college. 🙄
As an aside, the Space shuttle had a glide ratio of about 4.5/1 so unless these glide bombs are going to have variable geometry wings I'm not sure how this can work.
