The flight of a high-speed aircraft (HSA) at constant cruise speed along the line of sight is accompanied by heat generation. The recovery temperature at the fairing’s critical point can exceed 700 °C, which necessi-tates the use of a material that preserves its structural integrity while maintaining the specified radiofrequen-cy (RF) performance. Material for the fairing is selected by determining the tensile strength and elastic mod-ulus as functions of temperature and load. Most experimental
