Flying Wings Book

Since 1939, Northrop designed and built the world's most advanced aircraft, from the first primitive Flying Wings to today's digital B-2 Stealth Bomber. Between these two eras, hundreds of design concepts were generated, many advanced to the mock-up stage, and still more advanced to construction, flight test, and series production. This Book reveals recently de-classified Northrop designs that revolutionized the aviation industry. Here for the first time is the untold story of Northrop's rare, unique, and formerly super-secret aircraft and spacecraft of the future. Featuring stunning original factory artwork, technical drawings, and never-before-seen photographs, this Book shows an amazing array of radical high-performance aircraft concepts from Jack Northrop and his team of brilliant and innovative engineers. Hardbound, and approx. 276 pages with 439 photos.
