Dive into the thrilling world of aviation history with the Bell X-5, the first aircraft capable of changing its wing sweepback in flight. Born from the ashes of World War II, the X-5 was inspired by the German Messerschmitt P.1101 prototype. With its maiden flight in 1951, the X-5 was a marvel of innovation, exploring the uncharted territories of variable-sweep wing technology. This groundbreaking feature allowed it to test various wing positions, contributing invaluable data towards the development of future fighters and bombers. Although only two units were built, the X-5's legacy is monumental, paving the way for iconic aircraft such as the F-111 and the B-1 Lancer. Its operational years in the early 1950s marked a significant era in aviation, making the X-5 a legendary prototype that pushed the boundaries of aerospace engineering.
