A number of the early B1s were completed, and flew, with straight leading edges before later being retro-fitted with the kinked wing (e.g. XA889). I believe there was at least one B1 that kept its original straight edge wing throughout its flying life.

The second B1 XA890 was used as a trials aircraft and retained the straight wing leading edge throughout its life.
