Abstract

An oblique all-wing (OAW) vehicle and methods are described where the OAW vehicle has a unique configuration and can be used to, for example, launch a payload. The OAW vehicle can include an elongated airfoil body with a longitudinal axis, a top surface, a bottom surface, a first longitudinal end, a second longitudinal end, a first longitudinal edge at a first juncture between the top surface and the bottom surface, and a second longitudinal edge at a second juncture between the top surface and the bottom surface. The elongated airfoil body has an airfoil-shaped cross-section, with the first longitudinal edge defining a leading edge and the second longitudinal edge defining a trailing edge. A rocket engine or other propulsion device is mounted to the elongated airfoil body at the first longitudinal end.
