This, but it doesn't necessarily need to be super sonic, the faster you go the less drag you have the farther back your wings are swept.
There was the X-29, a test plane with forward swept wings that was partly an experiment to increase maneuverability at high speeds and the found the forward swept wings cut into the bow shock at sanic speeds.
It's also sexy as fuck.
