1. Es más eficaz para plegar aletas sobre él, e incluso un ala pivotante.
2. Permite integrar de manera más limpia la entrada de un ramjet
3. Si no es apilable de forma directa, sí que se puede colocar en filas verticales ocupando menos altura
4. NPI... pero podría ser que para cierta envolvente el cuerpo tuviera una capacidad de sustentación marginal?

- ¿Hipersónico? Dudo que sea sostenido por mucho tiempo. Olvidaros de cabezas baratas de seguimiento que vean algo a través del plasma o de la sustancia que aguante el calor a Mach4+

Para que no despiste, recordemos que p.ej. un ASRAAM alcanza Mach 3,5 y un AMRAAM o Meteor alcanzan Mach 4+, y sus sensores "ven". Para ese problema hipersónico estaríais hablando de bastante más de Mach 4+ (¿Mach 5, Mach 6?)
