The adaptation of the aircraft form to the use of variable sweep wings is treated. The use of variable sweep wings results in a possible increase of the aerodynamic lift for takeoff and landing, and a simultaneous optimization of the maximum flight range at all speeds, and hence in a substantial improvement of the payload-range characteristics. Variable sweep wings also allow an improved maneuverability at low speed and a remarkable flight comfort. Although variable sweep wings are heavier, the aircraft can be smaller and more efficient.
