The remarkable X-66 Sustainable Flight Demonstrator is in the early stages of production with @nasaaero . This stunning new render highlights the X-66’s Transonic Truss-Braced Wing concept comprising extra-long, thin wings supported by diagonal struts. When combined with advancements in propulsion systems, materials, and systems architecture, this configuration could result in reduced emissions and as much as 30% less fuel consumption than today’s best-in-class aircraft.
