The SR-71 was developed by Lockheed's "Skunk Works" to replace
the U-2 high altitude spyplane which had become vulnerable to
interception by surface-to-air missiles. The SR-71 is very fast
and with a top speed in excess of 2100mph it still holds many
world speed records. In the early '90s the SR-71 fleet was
mothballed but several aircraft have been reactivated by the
continuing need for a manned reconnaissance capability.
Markings included for one USAF aircraft.
