Box Wing Design

Box Wing Design is a fixed-wing aircraft configuration in which two parallel horizontal lifting surfaces are connected at their tips by vertical or near-vertical components to form a closed, box-like structure, distinguished from conventional wing designs by its integral aerodynamic and structural loop that enhances lift efficiency and reduces induced drag.
