X-wings with their s-foils locked in attack position as they assault the Death Star in Star Wars (1997 Special Edition). The T-65B X-wing was produced by the Incom Corporation, which had previously supplied the ARC-170 and Z-95 Headhunter starfighters to the Galactic Republic during the Clone Wars.
The X-wing starfighter, named for the distinctive shape made when its S-Foils are in attack position, was a class of starfighter used by the Rebel Alliance in their conflict with the Galactic Empire. It made its theatrical debut, as the T-65B model, in Star Wars (1977) as the spacecraft piloted by Luke Skywalker and the Red Squadron when Luke ...
Star Wars: X-Wing is a miniature war game designed by Jay Little and produced by Fantasy Flight Games that was released at Gen Con during August 17, 2012. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] It features tactical ship-to-ship dogfighting between various types of starfighters set in the fictional Star Wars universe. [ 4 ]
The Shkval, however, was designed to take off and land on its tail, similar to the American Lockheed XFV-1. As a result, it required significantly less space. After drafting the concept and conducting wind tunnel tests at the Central Aerohydrodynamic Institute, Pavel Sukhoi's team received official approval for the project. This approval ...

A cruciform wing is a set of four individual wings arranged in the shape of a cross.The cross may take either of two forms; the wings may be equally spaced around the cross-section of the fuselage, lying in two planes at right angles, as on a typical missile, or they may lie together in a single horizontal plane about a vertical axis, as in the cruciform rotor wing or X-wing.
Years of research and experience with the unusual conditions of supersonic flow have led to some interesting conclusions about airfoil design. Considering a rectangular wing, the pressure at a point P with coordinates (x,y) on the wing is defined only by the pressure disturbances originated at points within the upstream Mach cone emanating from point P. [3] As result, the wing tips modify the ...
In fluid dynamics, a stall is a reduction in the lift coefficient generated by a foil as angle of attack exceeds its critical value. [1] The critical angle of attack is typically about 15°, but it may vary significantly depending on the fluid , foil – including its shape, size, and finish – and Reynolds number .
