Delta wing

A delta wing is a type of airplane wing shaped like a triangle, similar to the outline of the Greek letter delta. Its design offers a large surface area, providing high-speed stability and good lift, especially at supersonic speeds. Delta wings are common in fighter jets and spacecraft due to their ability to handle high velocities and improve maneuverability. They also allow for a compact fuselage and can reduce weight. While they may create more drag at lower speeds, their aerodynamic advantages at high speeds make them ideal for fast, agile aircraft.
