An example of a deflected slip stream wing system with coflow jet flow control includes a wingbox, a flap, a compressor, and a propulsor. The wingbox has a root and a tip. The flap is moveably attached to the wingbox and has a leading edge, a trailing edge, an injection opening, a suction opening, and a channel. The injection opening is disposed between the leading edge and the suction opening. The suction opening is disposed between the injection opening and the trailing edge. The channel extends from the injection opening to the suction opening. The compressor is disposed within the channel. The propulsor is disposed on the wingbox between the root and the tip. The propulsor has an off state and an on state. When in the on state, the propulsor is aligned relative to the flap such that fluid accelerated by the propulsor contacts the flap.
