An X-plane. Nasa uses them for tests.
I stand corrected.

The Conquest X-30 is modeled after the REAL X-29 witch is hangin in the Air & Space museum. They never made a fighter out of it because they said the next generation fighter would most likely be unmanned. What a crappy excuse!

As a side note, you would think all the drag created by the wings in the reverse would be counter productive for flight.

The Air Force used alot of stuff from the F-16 to make the X-29. At the time the X-29 required more computer power than any other plane to keep it in the air. It was very unstable because ot the forward swept wings, BUT that is what you want in a "Dogfighter".
Even the Nazis had plans for a forward swept wing Jet Fighter at the end of WWII. But we beat them before they could build it. History Channel tells you alot.
