Waveriding L/D Ratio Questions

[KJ_Lesnick]

I'm wondering what is the "typical" and theoretical maximum L/D ratio...

-A highly-swept, pointed-nosed compression-ramped waverider could produce?
-A sharp, spatular-nosed waverider-design with highly-swept wings (wings would be full chord starting at the front of the spatular-nose, and finish at the end) could produce?

Nobody has even basic figures?

Wooom! May be he knows……　May be NTRS has the report……
If only we have rough sketch you mean……

Well a rough sketch would be pretty cool actually...

I'll see if NTRS has stuff though anyway
