Delta Debutante

The Convair XP-92 (redesignated XF-92 in 1948) was originally developed in response to a requirement issued by the USAAF in August of 1945 for a supersonic interceptor. However, the single prototype would eventually become a test vehicle that paved the way for more well-known and successful Convair types such as the F-102 Delta Dagger, F-106 Delta Dart, and B-58 Hustler. Anyhoo, today we present a way-cool inflight photo of the XF-92A.

Enjoy... and remember: AR = 4/tan(D)
