The SR-72, also known as the "Son of Blackbird," is an advanced aircraft developed by Lockheed Martin for the US Air Force. It is designed to be an incredibly fast, hypersonic, high-altitude surveillance plane. Scheduled for its first flight in 2025, the SR-72 aims to achieve speeds of over 4,000 mph, making it one of the fastest planes ever.
The aircraft is capable of firing projectiles, including hypersonic weapons, at unprecedented speeds and can maintain these high speeds for extended periods. While its official connection to the Pentagon is not confirmed, it is believed that the military is closely monitoring Lockheed Martin's innovative aircraft.
The SR-72 is part of Lockheed Martin's Advanced Development Programs, known as "Skunk Works," and it is expected to revolutionize military aviation with its cutting-edge technology. The design of the plane eliminates the need for a human pilot in the cockpit, potentially changing how the military operates such aircraft. With speeds approaching Mach 6 (about 4,100 mph), the SR-72 represents a significant leap in aviation capabilities.
