In this paper, a design method for a supersonic inlet is developed and integrated with a low-boom configuration over the wing. The interference between the inlet and the airframe is investigated, and the mechanism of total pressure distortion at the aerodynamic interface is clarified. In addition, an integrated design optimization is conducted, effectively enhancing the performance of the inlet.
