The transonic and supersonic flutter characteristics of thin cantilever wings with sweepback angles of 42.5 deg at the leading edge and 10 degrees at the trailing edges an aspect ratio of 1.344, and a taper ratio of 0.63 are presented. The experiments were conducted in a transonic blowdown wind tunnel at subsonic and supersonic speeds. The flutter boundary of the stiffness-altitude coefficients is characterized by having a maximum value near Mach 1.05 in the transonic speed range and by increasing in value with an increase of Mach number in the supersonic range.
