SUPERSONIC CONVERTIPLANE WITH X-SHAPED WING Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC B64C30/00 B64C23/04 

FIELD: aviation.

SUBSTANCE: supersonic convertiplane with X-shaped wing has airframe according to the scheme of an integral unstable longitudinal triplane with a high-positioned forward-swept wing, front horizontal tail, the all-moving panels of which are mounted on top of the side air intakes, two augmented bypass turbofan engines located in the nacelles between tailbooms, which have vertical fin with small tailplane halves on their outer sides. The aircraft is equipped with a system of wings, representing a combination of two, with X-shaped in the layout of wing panels, wings, the front of which is gull wing equipped with beams in the bends of its panels. The all-moving sweep rear wing panels are rotatable in a transverse plane around the longitudinal axis of the corresponding central part of spaced beam with formation of a three-fin airframe scheme in flight.

EFFECT: increasing aerodynamic efficiency of flight due to doubled interference of inverted shock waves.
