Abstract

See full text

A hydrofoil stabilizer fixed to an underwater hull and provided with a pair of pivotally deflectable control flaps through which surface lift on the stabilizer is controlled, is provided with trailing edge tabs on both of the flaps that are pivotally deflected in the same direction to further offset and thereby improve recovery from surface jam inducing lift force on the stabilizer which adversely affects maneuvering control.
