Century Wings 1:72 Wings of Heroes 001650 Lockheed SR-71A Blackbird Diecast Model USAF, #61-7955 Skunk Works, Edwards AFB, CA, 1985Limited Edition 1000 Pieces Worldwide 1:72 Scale Length WidthLockheed SR-71A Blackbird 17.75″ 9.25″ Aircraft #61-7955 first flew on 17 August 1965. As one of the first SR-71s produced, it remained at Lockheed’s Palmdale production facility to serve as a flight test aircraft. During much of that time, it wore the famous Lockheed « Skunk Works » logo on its tail. Over the course of twenty years, it played a crucial role in testing and verifying new systems and configurations that were later applied to the rest of the SR-71 fleet. By early 1985, it had accumulated 1993.7 hours of flight time. However, due to numerous modifications, it would have required significant changes to be brought back to SR-71 standard. As a result, the aircraft was retired from active service and subsequently put on display at the Air Force Flight Test Center Museum at Edwards AFB, California, where it remains as an exhibit for visitors to see today. Lockheed SR-71A Blackbird Designed as a long-range, strategic reconnaissance aircraft, The Lockheed SR-71 first flew on December 22, 1964. Nicknamed « The Blackbird, » this highly-advanced aircraft was believed by many to be ahead of its time. It was capable of mach 3 and still holds the record for the fastest « air breathing manned aircraft » in the world. Its speed and ability to operate at high altitudes served as a defensive feature; when attacked by surface-to-air missiles, the pilot needed only to accelerate to avoid being struck. Only 32 SR-71’s were operated during its 34-year service history, and though 12 were destroyed in accidents none were lost to enemy attack. Copyright 2003-2024 The Flying Mule, Inc.
