In 1998, Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird retired after 30 years of service with the US Air Force, leaving behind a legacy of record-breaking flights. Now, Lockheed Martin is on the horizon with the SR-72, often dubbed the "Son of Blackbird," aiming to push the boundaries even further.

Confirmed in 2013, this hypersonic aircraft is scheduled for its first flight in 2025. In this video, we explore the anticipated SR-72, shedding light on its projected capabilities as the fastest aircraft ever.
