Their extensive aerodynamic studies painstakingly conducted during the Soyuz development revealed daunting weight penalties and troublesome thermal control issues inherent to any winged craft. Instead their research illuminated a compelling alternative: a lifting body shape capable of executing high angles of bank at hypersonic speeds which could almost rival winged designs in terms of cross range efficiency.

"Britain's Supersonic Transport The Vickers Swallow was a Mach [---] supersonic aircraft project headed by Barnes Wallis working at the British aircraft company Vickers-Armstrongs. The Vickers Swallow lacked conventional features such as a vertical stabiliser and rudder instead using the movement of variable geometry wings and swiveling engines mounted on pylons far out on the wing tips as its primary means of flight control. Multiple roles were envisioned for the full-scale Swallow. It was initially viewed as suitable for a very long distance airliner; projections of its range would have"

"NASA's Survivable Crew Compartment Space Shuttle Engineers in Houston envisioned the Shuttle II as an evolution of the Space Shuttle with the Evolved Shuttle at its core. This design would have replaced the Space Shuttles Solid Rocket Boosters with Liquid Replacement Boosters while keeping the expendable External Tank and with minor modifications the Space Shuttle Main Engines (SSMEs). The wing configuration would have been revamped with winglets at the tips of modified delta wings replacing the vertical tail fin. The most significant change was to the crew compartment which was completely"
