Northrop YB-35

Northrop XB-35 dan YB-35 adalah pesawat pembom berat eksperimental yang dikembangkan oleh Northrop Corporation untuk United States Army Air Forces selama dan segera setelah Perang Dunia II.

Pesawat ini menggunakan desain sayap terbang radikal dan berpotensi sangat efisien, di mana bagian ekor dan badan pesawat dieliminasi dan semua payload dilakukan di sayap tebal. Hanya prototipe dan pesawat pra-produksi dibangun, meskipun masih cukup kuat untuk menjamin pengembangan lebih lanjut dari desain sebagai bomber jet, di bawah penunjukan YB-49.
