reduced drag
"Swept back' just refers to the wing shape. It can be a commercial, private or military aircraft.
It's considered a swept wing design.
The F-22 Raptor possesses a trapezoidal wing configuration: a low aspect-ratio tapered wing wherein the leading edge is swept back, and the trailing edge swept forward to form somewhat of a diamond-shape.
The word swept is the past participle, past tense of the verb to sweep (He swept the floor.), and an adjective, a word that describes a noun (The plane had a swept wing.). There is no plural form for a verb or an adjective. Nouns and pronouns have plural forms.
Delta wing is the swept back wing design seen on jet airplanes like the Concorde. It is also a race car used in Le Mans in 2012.
Swept wings are preferred in supersonic aircraft to facilitate vertical take off and reduce runway length during take off.
The surface area of the wing is slightly reduced, resulting in a reduced ability to generate lift. The effective aspect ratio is reduced, helping to increase wing tip vortices. Also, it is harder to recover from a stall with a swept wing aircraft, as the rear of the wing tends to stall first. This produces a greater nose up pitch on stalling, which is far harder to recover from than with a straight-winged aircraft.

A straight wing is good for a low-powered, slow moving aircraft. A straight, thick wing is good for short takeoff and landing aircraft, and high-speed, high-thrust aircraft need a swept wing.
Jet planes ARE monoplanes. The old model of Victorious came with swept wing jet fighters and straight wing aircraft.
