D-558-1 Skystreak Swept-Wing Wind Tunnel Model

The D-558-1 was developed by the Douglas Aircraft Company, today a part of Boeing, at its El Segundo (California) Division. Although this wind tunnel model shows a swept wing design, in order to mitigate risk, Douglas' design team decided to use a straight wing configuration for the aircraft rather than risk using the then new, and mostly unproven swept wing.
