How the hell did that design get such speed with such gigantically thick wings? AVKent882 ( talk) 19:34, 10 March 2009 (UTC)
"Mach 2.6" is a reference to the mach number the shape was tested to in a wind tunnel, not the speed of the airplane. But also, generally, copious thrust has the potential to overcome even the most draggy-looking things, especially if you point the nose down. Additionally, "draggy looking" doesn't always equal "draggy" just as "Streamlined" or "Aerodynamic looking" doesn't always equal "low drag". -- Gummer85 ( talk) 02:23, 11 March 2009 (UTC)
Is the XP-92 really a "variant" of the P.13a? Some accounts claim Convair designed their plane and after encountering problems, they looked at Lippisch's work and consulted with him. To me, the designs do not seem that similar, the P13 is stubby and very thick winged. DonPMitchell ( talk) 05:07, 18 June 2012 (UTC)
This aircraft, which never flew and the development work halted by the end of the war, is one of the most important in the future development of the Cold War supersonic fighter aircraft. Aircraft to to swiftly shoot down incoming bombers with nuclear weapons. Planes such as the Swedish Saab 35 Draken, French Dassault Mirage III, Convair F-102 Delta Dagger in the USA and ultra-fast reconnaissance planes such as the Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird are designed according to principles developed through this project.
Lippisch went to the USA and Convair.
Lippisch mathematician Hermann Behrbohm was engaged in 1946 by the French BEE (French Aerodynamic Research and Development Institute) within the framework of the Franco-German research institute Saint-Louis (ISL), where France developed the Dassault Mirage III. In 1951, however, he emigrated with his family to Sweden and was employed by Saab in Linköping, where he worked until his retirement in 1972, including the development of the Saab 35 Draken and later the Saab 37 Viggen. The design basics come from this project. It is as important for air fighter development as the V2 is for the Apollo rides rocket development.
Then I think deleting my intro I wrote is just a sign that someone does not want to see it in its context. It would have been better to update the text in a desired way.
If my text is not good enough could someone else write it?
