What aspect ratio does a delta wing swept \( 45 \) degrees at the leading edge have?

  • A.4.00
  • B.2.31
  • C.1.00
  • D.8.00

Answer: A

Substituting into \( 4/\tan\Lambda \) with \( \tan 45^\circ = 1 \) gives exactly 4. Comparing with the 60-degree case shows how quickly the aspect ratio falls as sweep is increased, which is the geometric price paid for keeping the leading edge subsonic at high Mach number.
