Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird
The Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird was an advanced long-range Mach 3+ strategic reconnaissance aircraft. It was developed as a black project from the Lockheed A-12 reconnaissance aircraft in the 1960s by the Lockheed Skunk Works. Clarence Kelly Johnson was responsible for many of the design's innovative concepts. During reconnaissance missions the SR-71 operated at high speeds and altitudes to allow it to outrace threats.
The first flight of the Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird was on Dec. 22, 1964.
It became operational in March of 1968 and was retired in 1998.1
