The SR-71 Blackbird wasn't really a stealth aircraft. It was a reduced RCS craft, meaning it had a reduced radar signature, but was still detectable, and relied on its speed for its defence. It was an unarmed aircraft, being intended for photographic surveillance and reconnaissance. An armed prototype - the YF-12A - was tested for potential use as an interceptor, but was never fielded.
Lockheed Corporation, now known as the Lockheed Martin.ANS 2 -The Blackbird wasn't a "stealth jet" -it flew high enough at such speeds that it really didn't matter to be stealth, nothing could catch it.
No, because the SR-71 Blackbird is supersonic aircraft. It uses stealth and climb higher altitudes. It is the World's fatest, stealtiest and highest flying airplane ever. It can travel over 2,000 miles per hour and fly at 85,000 feet. The plane is incredibly invisible because it's favorite mode is stealth mode, this makes it unbelievable difficult to detect the SR-71 Blackbird on radar.
The F-22 stealth raptor is the stealth combat aircraft.
The SR 71 Blackbird was built for stealth so that it couldn't be spotted in the radars of opposite crafts
No because the SR-71 Blackbird is the World's fastest, stealthiest and the highest flying aircraft. Only the United States of Anerica has the SR-71 Blackbird.
SR-71 Blackbird is a surveillance aircraft developed by the United States of America. It is a surveillance aircraft which does not carry bombs. It was discontinued in production after sometime.
All stealth aircraft are built with the intent of being 'invisible' to radar. One of the best was the F-117.
Currently, the B2 Spirit and the F22 Raptor. The F117 Nighthawk has been retired, as has the 'reduced RCS' SR-71 Blackbird. The F35 isn't scheduled to be delivered until 2016.
The Lockheed SR-71 "Blackbird" aircraft has a top speed of 2,200 mph.
The SR 71 Blackbird is the fastest plane in the world
It is the Lockheed SR-71 "Blackbird", a reconnaissance aircraft.
