		SAAB engineers had no knowledge of the P-80 when they drew up the R-101 design, and when they found out about the Shooting Star, they realized they were several years behind the times and went back to the drawing board.
		Through the assistance of the Swiss, SAAB engineers were also able to get their hands on German aerodynamic research data from the war that demonstrated the effectiveness of a swept wing for high-speed flight, and so modified the original straight wing to a wing with a sweepback of 25 degrees.
