The Armstrong Whitworth A.W.52 was an early flying wing aircraft designed and produced by British aircraft manufacturer Armstrong Whitworth Aircraft. The A.W.52 emerged out of wartime research into the laminar flow airfoil, which indicated that, in combination with the flying wing configuration, such an aircraft could be dramatically more efficient than traditional designs. It was pursued to gather data and experience with the configuration in support of Armstrong Whitworth's ambitions to develop its proposed flying wing jet airliner. Construction of the A.W.52 commenced during the late 1940s; a total of three aircraft, the A.W.52G glider and two jet-powered aircraft, were constructed for the research programme.

  • Armstrong Whitworth A.W.52 war die Bezeichnung für zwei unterschiedliche Nurflügel-Versuchsflugzeuge, die in den 1940er-Jahren in Großbritannien entwickelt wurden. Es wurde zuerst ein antriebsloses Konzeptmodell (A.W.52G) gebaut, dem ein zweistrahliges maßstäblich vergrößertes Modell (A.W.52) folgte. (de)

  • L'Armstrong Whitworth A.W.52 era un aereo sperimentale, progettato nel 1944 dall'ingegnere John Lloyd su incarico del dipartimento dell'aeronautica britannica e realizzato dall'azienda britannica Armstrong Whitworth Aircraft in soli due esemplari tra il 1947 e il 1948. Era detto ala volante per la sua forma caratteristica, analogo all'americano Northrop YB-49 che ha volato circa un mese e mezzo prima, ed entrambi derivati dal tedesco Horten Ho 229. (it)

  • Armstrong Whitworth A.W.52 – brytyjski samolot doświadczalny, zbudowany w układzie konstrukcyjnym latającego skrzydła w latach 40. XX wieku. Pierwotnie przeznaczony do roli szybkiego bombowca. Wybudowano dwa egzemplarze prototypowe. Był to również samolot, na którym po raz pierwszy w historii, brytyjski pilot w prawdziwej sytuacji użył wyrzucanego fotela w celu ratowania życia. (pl)
  • O Armstrong Whitworth A.W.52 foi uma asa voadora experimental designada nos anos de 1940 pelo Reino Unido com o propósito de criar uma asa voadora para linha aérea. Três protótipos foram criados sendo o A.W.52G um planador e dois modelos propulsados por motor a jato. A versão de linha aérea foi cancelada mas a pesquisa de voo continuou até 1954. (pt)
  • Armstrong Whitworth A.W.52 — британський експериментальний літак, «літаюче крило». Побудований для дослідження льотних характеристик для подальшого проектування важкого транспортного літака такого ж типу. Перший дослідний зразок здійснив політ 13 листопада 1947 року. Силова установка складалася з двох турбореактивних двигунів . Другий дослідний зразок з двигунами здійснив перший політ 1 вересня 1948, в подальшому зазнав аварії і був зруйнований. (uk)

  • De Armstrong Whitworth A.W.52 "Flying wing" was een straalaangedreven bommenwerper die door de Britten werd gebouwd tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog. Aan het einde van de Tweede Wereldoorlog werd het project beëindigd, maar niet vóór werk aan het A.W.52G zweefvliegtuig was begonnen.Het eerste prototype vloog voor het eerst op 2 maart 1945. Armstrong Whitworth, na annulering van het bommenwerpersproject, wilde heel wat voordelen in een grotere "Flying Wing" type en was uiteindelijk bereid een contract te geven om twee prototypen te produceren. De eerste vlucht van het grotere toestel, uitgerust met twee Rolls Royce "Nene" motoren, vond plaats op 13 november 1947. Het toestel bereikte uiteindelijk snelheden van rond de 804 km/h. (nl)
