RE: F27 STRYKER Part 7 : The Basics To The Darkest of Dark
It would depend on the aircrafts airfoil to some degree i would imagine. If the aircraft needs a higher angle of attack to fly level due to increased weight then it will be slower. This isn't a problem with a stryker of any sane weight as it has plenty of lift to overcome the increased weight. In fact it could be argued that since at speed an average weight stryker needs some negative angle of attack to stop it from flying into the clouds a heavier plane may be a touch faster.
