drag
Explanation:
Pelo contexto:

"Drag is a mechanical force. It is generated by the interaction and contact of a solid body with a fluid (liquid or gas). It is not generated by a force field, in the sense of a gravitational field or an electromagnetic field, where one object can affect another object without being in physical contact."

Arrasto Aerodinâmico


Explanation:
Qualquer objeto, nesse caso a aeronave, tem dificuldade em se deslocar através do ar. Essa dificuldade é chamada arrasto e este se eleva ao quadrado toda vez que a velocidade do objeto dobra.

Com a adição de equipamentos externos o arrasto também aumenta, causando diminuição da velocidade e, portanto do alcance ou autonomia.
