The E2
The Lippisch-Espenlaub (Glider Experiment) E2 was the first of over 50 swept-wing, tailless designs produced by Lippisch over the next three decades. Plates at each wing tip were drooped to provide directional stability. Though this first effort was less than impressive, it at least was a starting point from which Lippisch began serious, systematic development of tailless designs.
