Grumman X-29 - Wikipedia
The Grumman X-29 is an American experimental aircraft that tested a forward-swept wing, canard control surfaces, and other novel aircraft technologies. Funded by NASA, the United States Air Force and DARPA, the X-29 was developed by Grumman, and the two built were flown by NASA and the United States Air Force. [1]

2018年7月23日 · The X-29 was the first forward-swept wing design to travel through the sound barrier. It could fly at a maximum speed of Mach 1.6. Although it didn't prove that there was a reduction in drag than early studies of forward-angled wing design had suggested, the enormous flight envelope of the aircraft definitely proved a great deal.
