A SR-71 Blackbird Has Vanished
- NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman displayed an unidentified, dark aircraft during a presentation at the All-In Summit in Los Angeles.
- NASA declined to identify the aircraft or confirm whether it represents an active program, but said the agency wants more experimental X-planes flying in the coming years.
- The aircraft resembles the SR-71 Blackbird, although its identification remains uncertain and the image reveals little about its design, speed, propulsion, or mission.
- NASA is pursuing aircraft that can fly higher and faster as it returns to more radical airframe and engine designs.
