    So, the main reason for decreasing the blade section thickness to chord ratio is to delay the compressibility effect related to higher Mach numbers, delaying the onset of a shock wave formation. The natural outcome of this requirement is a wing design that is thin and wide, which has a low thickness-to-chord ratio.
