We ran an inflatable cow on top of our car a few years ago. Compared to most LeMons add ins it was fairly low drag.

If you look closely, the bottom photo is measured in Mach numbers. That’s a mach 8 cow.

If you look closely, the bottom drawing is at Mach 8. I bet the drag ramps up quickly

Heating would be an issue, but you would have a nice roast pretty quick.

Turns out cows are not aerodynamic. Who’d have thunk?

A lot of this must be in the posture ... maybe make it a unicorn with the head pointed to wherever it creates less trouble? :D

Turns out that cows emit a lot of methane via their mouth, too, so it’s not even a completely foolish assessment.

Seriously, though, how did you end up simulating this? :o
