In the late 1950s and early 1960s the <a href="/wiki/Bristol_Aeroplane_Company" title="Bristol Aeroplane Company">Bristol Aeroplane Company</a> studied a number of models as part of a large British inter-company effort funded by the government. These models eventually culminated in the Type 223, a transatlantic transport for about 100 passengers at a speed around <a href="/wiki/Mach_number" title="Mach number">Mach 2</a>. At about the same time <a href="/wiki/Sud_Aviation" title="Sud Aviation">Sud Aviation</a> in <a href="/wiki/France" title="France">France</a> was developing the similar <a href="/wiki/Sud_Aviation_Super-Caravelle" title="Sud Aviation Super-Caravelle">Super-Caravelle</a> design, and in November 1962 the efforts were merged to create the <a href="/wiki/Concorde" title="Concorde">Concorde</a> project. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Development">Development</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Bristol_Type_223&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Development"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Background">Background</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Bristol_Type_223&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Background"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In the <a href="/wiki/United_Kingdom" title="United Kingdom">UK</a>, as elsewhere in the 1950s, the aero industry had been producing a series of supersonic test aircraft and had extensively studied the problems of sustained high-speed flight. By the mid-1950s, two designs had been shown to have a <a href="/wiki/Lift-to-drag_ratio" title="Lift-to-drag ratio">lift-to-drag ratio</a> suitable for supersonic cruise, a sharply swept <a href="/w/index.php?title=M-wing&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="M-wing (page does not exist)">M-wing</a> pioneered at <a href="/wiki/Armstrong-Whitworth" class="mw-redirect" title="Armstrong-Whitworth">Armstrong-Whitworth</a> for slightly supersonic flight and very slender <a href="/wiki/Delta_wing" title="Delta wing">delta wings</a> suitable for a wide range of speeds. Higher speeds up to Mach 3 had been considered and found to be possible, but it appeared that a practical upper limit was Mach 2.2; above this speed the <a href="/wiki/Duralumin" title="Duralumin">duralumin</a> used for most aircraft construction would start to soften due to the heat of friction, and some new material would have to be used instead.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Stainless steel was considered, but the <a href="/wiki/Bristol_188" title="Bristol 188">Bristol 188</a> proved this to be difficult and expensive. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="STAC">STAC</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Bristol_Type_223&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: STAC"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>By 1956 there was enough official interest in this research for the <b>Supersonic Transport Aircraft Committee</b>, or <b>STAC</b>, to be formed under Sir <a href="/wiki/Morien_Morgan" title="Morien Morgan">Morien Morgan</a> to investigate the creation of a supersonic transport. Its first report, in 1959, recommended two designs. One was an M-wing Mach 1.2 medium range airliner and the other a straight wing, Mach 1.8 design with six wingtip engines. Soon after, however, studies at the <a href="/wiki/Royal_Aircraft_Establishment" title="Royal Aircraft Establishment">Royal Aircraft Establishment</a> began to favour the <a href="/wiki/Ogee" title="Ogee">gothic delta</a> and design contracts using this planform went to <a href="/wiki/Hawker_Siddeley" title="Hawker Siddeley">Hawker Siddeley</a> and Bristol in late 1959. Both were asked to look at both Mach 2.2 <a href="/wiki/Aluminium_alloy" title="Aluminium alloy">aluminium alloy</a> and Mach 2.7 stainless steel structures.<sup id="cite_ref-Flight2_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Flight2-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Bristol's Mach 2.7 design was labelled the <b>Type 213</b>. Their designer, <a href="/wiki/Archibald_Russell" title="Archibald Russell">Archibald Russell</a>, was influenced by the constructional problems and expense encountered with the <a href="/wiki/Bristol_188" title="Bristol 188">Bristol 188</a> and favoured the lower speed alloy aircraft.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The thin wing design of the Type 213 was preferred by the STC and a 1961 contract encouraged a detailed series of studies of a 130-seat, Mach 2.2 aircraft powered by six <a href="/wiki/Bristol_Olympus" class="mw-redirect" title="Bristol Olympus">Bristol Olympus</a> engines under the generic <b>Type 198</b> label. Aware of the great expense of the project, STAC required Bristol to share the cost with an overseas partner. In 1961, Sud Aviation revealed their plans for the <a href="/wiki/Sud_Aviation_Super-Caravelle" title="Sud Aviation Super-Caravelle">Super-Caravelle</a> at the <a href="/wiki/Paris_Air_Show" title="Paris Air Show">Paris Air Show</a>, a smaller aircraft than the Type 198. Bristol proposed a design which came between the Super Caravelle and the Type 198 which they called the <b>Type 223</b>; the <a href="/wiki/France" title="France">French</a> were looking at a slightly larger version of the Super Caravelle and the two companies had a specification for agreement to build an aircraft jointly. Throughout 1962 they and their respective governments negotiated the formation of a consortium to share development and production costs, estimated at £15m-£170m.<sup id="cite_ref-Flight2_2-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Flight2-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup class="noprint Inline-Template" style="margin-left:0.1em; white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Please_clarify" title="Wikipedia:Please clarify"><span title="The text near this tag may need clarification or removal of jargon.
