DRIVEN AIRCRAFT, IN PARTICULAR AN AIRCRAFT DESIGNED AS A FLYING WING AND/OR HAVING A LOW RADAR SIGNATURE

摘要

The invention relates to an aircraft (10), comprising a fuselage body, a wing body (12), and at least one drive flow passage (16), which extends from an air inlet (18) directed forward (+x) on the body surface (14) via a jet engine (20) through the body (12) to a propelling nozzle (22) that opens toward the rear (-x) on the body surface (14). At least one part of the jet engine (20), in particular the entire jet engine (20), is arranged upstream of the air inlet (18) as viewed in the flying direction (+x) of the aircraft (10) and the drive flow passage (16) has curvature sections (24, 28) designed and arranged suitably therefor.
