The SR-71 Blackbird.
Tumblr media
A spy plane that flew at approximately 70 to 85 thousand (21,000 to 25,000 meters) above Earth's sea level and cruised at speeds of 2,500 miles per hour ( 4,000 km per hour) is one man's most most amazing creation in its class for the purposes of intelligence gathering.
Tumblr media
When the enemy fired missiles and other rockets at the Blackbird, the evasive maneuver was simply, acceleration and climbing.
Tumblr media
Nothing could reach this machine that practically flew at the edge of Earth's atmosphere and beginning of solar system space.
Tumblr media
Enemy aircraft would run out of fuel before they could even attempt to get close to the Blackbird.
Tumblr media
Missiles would burn out of rocket fuel. On some instances, the SR-71 outsped missiles and bullets fired at it.
Tumblr media
Architecture, engineering and operation of this machine is phenomenal. Even though we outlived its usefulness, it would be awesome to keep this aircraft functional for demonstration purposes.

My classmate and I were taking a class at a community college halfway across the US from our school. To get there, we had to ride a supersonic jet (a Concord specifically) to and from the college and be back in time to attend our next classes at our school.

Reapproaching Supersonic Air Travel
Tumblr media
Before the Concorde even began regular flights, protests over its sound levels caused the U.S. and many other countries to ban overland commercial supersonic flight. Those restrictions have stood for fifty years. (Image credit: NASA; via Physics Today) Read the full article
