I'll believe that one when I see it fly..........

Lockheed A-12, 60-6924 is the prototype A-12

Lockheed SR-71A, 61-7973

And the cool part is they are parked like this at the Airpark at Plant 42 in Palmdale CA

Lockheed YF-117A 79-10783,

Lockheed U-2D, 56-6721 was built with a second seat in place of the instrument bay behind the cockpit.

Mach 3+ D-21 drones were designed to be launched from the Lockheed M-21. After the loss of an M-21 during the launch of a D-21, the D-21s were launched from Boeing B-52H Stratofortresses using solid fuel rocket boosters.

One More

A-12 Blackbird tail number 927 on display at the California Science Center. This aircraft was held in storage at Air Force Plant #42 for many years and was one of the last Blackbirds to be released to a museum. This was the only dual control version of the A-12 that was built. Since the A-12 was a single seat aircraft, a second cockpit was grafted into the aircraft to add the second set of controls.

I'm not an aerospace engineer but that does not look like a stable flight.... but with fly by wire/and computer guidance it may work...lol

The 117 has a sound of its own,unlike other jets when cursing.

I may not be an aeronautical engineer with a masters degree but to me the more I look at that Iranian aircraft..it looks more and more like some scaled resin model they pushed out to show the world that we have technology too besides training terrorists and hating the West.

Looks like the canopy has locks on the outside.
