Northrop X-4 Bantam
The Northrop X-4 Bantam was a prototype small twin-jet aircraft manufactured by Northrop Corporation in 1948. It had no horizontal tail surfaces depending instead on combined elevator and aileron control surfaces for control in pitch and roll attitudes almost exactly in the manner of the similar-format rocket-powered Messerschmitt Me 163 of Nazi Germany's Luftwaffe.
