Keywords: experimental, computational, nose blunting, transonic speed

An experimental and computational study on the aerodynamic effect of nose blunting on a conical nosed slender axisymmetric body was studied. Data is presented across the Mach number range 0.1 – 5.0, and for angle of incidence 0 deg - 15 deg for transonic cases.
