Dornier studied this configuration in the late 1970s as part of their TKF-90 work. It uses a joined wing configuration, where the forward upper wing is more highly swept than the rear lower wing. This was intended to give a very lightweight, high lift wing with very low drag in both subsonic and supersonic flight.
