Boeing X-53 Active Aeroelastic Wing

jmpl|300px

Program pengembangan X-53 Active Aeroelastic Wing (AAW)' merupakan proyek penelitian yang selesai dilakukan bersama oleh Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL), Boeing Phantom Works dan NASA's Dryden Flight Research Center, di mana teknologi tersebut merupakan penerbangan uji pada modifikasi McDonnell Douglas F/A-18 Hornet. Aeroelastik Teknologi Wing aktif adalah teknologi yang mengintegrasikan aerodinamis sayap, kontrol, dan struktur untuk memanfaatkan dan mengendalikan sentuhan aeroelastik sayap dengan kecepatan tinggi dan tekanan dinamis.
