    First published in January 1945, his approach contrasted with that of Lippisch on thick delta wings. The thin delta wing first flew on the Convair XF-92 in 1948, making it the first delta-winged jet plane to fly. [34] It provided a successful basis for all practical supersonic deltas and the configuration became widely adopted. [35] [36]

    English: XF-92A investigated the behavior of the tailless delta wing. All of these aircraft were successful in that they demonstrated both favorable as well as adverse behaviors. The XF-92A perhaps had the most influence on future high-speed designs. It was flown by Air Force test pilots on October 14, 1953.
