It is concluded that delta wing, contrary to widely publicized opinion that it is destined to be wing planform for all future supersonic aircraft, actually offers only limited range of Mach number usefulness, that between 1.0 and 1.4, but this is next important speed regime into which aircraft design is now moving; beyond this speed, however, straight wing is certain to be the answer.
