Bayesian optimization of the flight distance for sizes of a javelin was carried out. The procedure is divided into three parts. The first step is to calculate aerodynamic forces acting on a javelin. This was carried out with the aid of CFD. The second step is optimization of the flight distance for launch conditions. The longest flight distance for optimal launch condition was obtained. This was carried out with the aid of a genetic algorithm. The third step is Bayesian optimization of the flight distance for sizes of the javelin. It was found that the optimal sizes of the javelin driven by Bayesian optimization were almost comparable with those of commercially available javelin.
