what is it?
The Vickers Swallow was a supersonic aircraft project headed by Barnes Wallis, working at the British aircraft company Vickers-Armstrongs. It was a wing-controlled aerodyne, controlled in flight by movement of the entire wing, and was the supersonic successor to the Wild Goose project. Several remotely piloted vehicles were built and flown for research purposes in addition to ground testing of static models.
