Description : (La description de cette image n'existe qu'en anglais)
This NACA High-Speed Flight Research Station photograph of the X-5 was taken at the South Base of Edwards Air Force Base. The photograph shows a frontal view of the X-5 on the ramp in-front of the NACA hangar. This view also provides a good view of the pitot-static probe, used to measure airspeed, Mach number, and altitude, mounted on a nose boom protruding from the top of the aircraft's nose engine inlet. Also attached to the pitot-static probe portion of the nose boom are flow direction vanes for sensing the aircraft's angles-of-attack and sideslip in flight.
