Minimum drag due to lift for a delta wing with sonic leading edges

Using linearized theory a close approximation to the optimum camber and twist distribution of a Delta wing of zero thickness with sonic leading edges has been obtained. The optimum wing has a camber line that is negative over the front quarter of the total planform area and is positive over the rem...
