The triangle-shaped "blended-wing body" plane ditches the traditional tube-and-wing design for one giant, sweeping wing with ...

In the 1940s, the flying wing seemed destined to transform aviation with its sleek design and efficiency. But despite promising early tests, Jack Northrop’s prototypes faced engineering challenges and ...

Longer, thinner wings are on the horizon as NASA and Boeing continue to research what the future of aviation could look like ...

Experience the Solar Plane V4 Flying Wing in action, showcasing its solar-powered flight capabilities and innovative design.

The B-21 bomber pairs cutting edge tech with a throwback aircraft design. It is based on a visionary aircraft design that dates back to World War II. That aircraft, the YB-49, minimized drag but ...

With the looks of an oversized boomerang, the Horten HX-2 flying wing may be coming your way soon. Never heard of a flying wing? “It’s a tail-less fixed-wing aircraft that has no fuselage,” says ...

As a result of these challenges, most flying wing projects and prototypes never take-off, literally or figuratively. In fact, ...

Lehmann Aviation (www.lehmannaviation.com), a professional drones manufacturer since 15 years, announces to be in discussion to sale its Flying Wing Drone technology and refocus its strategy on larger ...

Early aviation engineers appreciated the potential for a “flying wing” design. A flying wing, which minimizes fuselage and usually eliminates the tail, reduces many of the aerodynamic compromises ...

Ask anyone what an airplane looks like and most will tell you a tube with wings. NASA researchers are trying to expand that image. They’re testing a design for a flying wing, called a blended wing ...

Nobody thinks that the present design of planes is definitive. One who has revolutionary ideas about the next step is brainy, energetic John Knudsen Northrop. He thinks the tail ought to come off: he ...
