Superjet of the CIA: Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird walkaround
Loading...
Uploaded by lightning1975 on Sep 11, 2006
Blackbird at the American Air Museum, Duxford, England. Sorry if this video is a bit long and repetitive but I can't think of a more suitable song to go with the pics. It still looks more modern like anything else today, even though it first flew in 1963!!!

@iaintg0t0ne What do you mean they never used the SR-71? It went on sortie's almost every single week of its life!
-
I'm curious, how did this museum score a SR-71 Blackbird? Isn't this the only Blackbird displayed outside the US. They have one at Warner Robins AFB in GA not too far from where I live. Otherworldly to say the least.
-
Although the M-21 a varant of the Sr-71 used to carry a drone for the CIA. I heard a rumor they did test with some weapons but later concluded it was impossible due to the speeds. Boeing Aerospace museum has one of the last M-21's.

lol i love the b52 in there i was there yesterday at the 2008 show i even have my fs2004 duxford airstrip modded and the b52 there ( me flying it)
-
they should of kept it a secret. Now smart people are gonna realize that they have more top secret aircraft flying around at twice the speed of this.
-
Just remembered something. Some toy company actually reproduced plastic scale replicas of the Blackbird before she was officialy released to the public. A family friend got one for his nephew because 'it looked really neat and futuristic'
He thinks it was Matchbox but since that was 30-40 something years ago
-
Eh, I'll stick with the Blackbird. At leats it made it past the prototype stage (Y in designation generally= prototype craft)
Actually I once speculated in a debate about the possibility of an internal weapons bay on the SR-71....we figure the speed would rip 'em off....so for a fictional recc/strike varient it had to drop down the subsonic to release ordinance.

Then you should go shopping for a YF-12 :)
Hope you have a platinum club card!

The U.S. owns this plane, not the U.K.

the video is fine and dandy and all but the cia never got/used the sr-71 (thay used the older versons when that did have them and even then thay we're all USAF pilots)
iaintg0t0ne 4 years ago
Yes, but what I meant though as it's design was instigated by the CIA. Withiut them, it would never have been built.
