...be a simpler/lighter solution, so there must be something else going on high Mach-wise in addition I think. Any potential advantages/disadvantages at high AoA? I've noted that winglets have gone out of vogue since HiMAT on agile fast(ish) jets like the Yak-130/Aermacchi. Any thoughts? Cheers...

You mean in 1955? By then had actualy flown jet arplanes FIAT (the G-80 series), Aerfer and Caproni-Trento (the Frati's F.5). The MB-324 was just a project, like the SIAI-Marchetti SM-10X of 1950 (and the SM-110 Chimera II of 1950, a four-jet liner...). The first Macchi's jet-airplane to fly...
