The development of new surface to air and air to air missiles with improved maneuverability in terms of load factor or time leg requires a better prediction of the aerodynamic coefficients, mainly those related to the static stability. Within this context, examples are presented of stability predictions based on several theoretical methods. Also underlined are the experimental problems for the evaluation of the static stability from wind-tunnel tests.
