Default Hull form for the sound barrier!

No one has gone transonic in a Coronado either.

The Coronado may be a fine boat but the X-1 was not shaped to go beyond
the sound barrier; nobody'd done it yet so nobody yet knew how a
supersonic plane should be shaped. They made it look like Buck Rogers
spacecraft. Notice that modern transonic planes look nothing like the
X-1.
