The SR-71A BlackBirds engines could be thought as the first generation of the " Hybrid " engines that operated in a standard Jet mode then switch to a " Ram-Jet " : When operating in the " Ram-Jet " mode faster the plane went and the engine could operate at ; allowed them to operate more efficiently and that extra efficient operation is what allowed the SR-71A to complete their missions.

If videos are being made and the tech acknowledged, it is already obsolete.

@brianlegates9602

What they show you is the last leap in technology, not the current. Always was always will be

@HorusKing

Awesome I’m glad we have created another game changer go Skunkworks!!!

@ThomasBestonso-zr4ko

How cool is it to know you make a plane obsolete that nobody caught up with yet... the remarkable part is this happened and everyone that learned of the SR-72 and act like, of course we retired the SR-71 , we've got something better than that too... and the SR-72 & HYPERSONIC has been in our arsenal of capabilities psince the 70s

@shawnrezaie6326

This facility is building UFOs with mind-blowing technologies 100 years in the future. SR 72 and others are just a front, though, and are extremely advanced aviation crafts. Ninety percent of the UFOs we encountered during the last 30 years were engineered right at these facilities, but how far do we go in secrecy, and why?!

@sammyogdeeogdee7512

Space command needed this.

@TheNotehead

Amazing, but how about the SR-91 Aurora? Between these two aircraft, the US would truly own the skies, and also the LEO zone.

@alananderson5929

Saw the SR71’s last flight from North Island and it was surreal. Can’t wait to see what this next generation can do. Semper Fi🇺🇸

@arthurzettel6618

With a scram jet engine, the theoretical top end speed is between 5,000 to 17,000 M.P.H. .
SR-72, I believe, could conceivably hit those hypersonic speeds. In a way, that's a ascary thought, a space fighter.

@scottjoslin1316

Don't know guys bcuz at the same time he said it "flies higher than most satellites"  so ??

@TJMppman

It’s funny that he keeps repeating himself 😂

@JuanCarrero-ok3nx

4:52 lasers for sure.

@williegentes8065

Go America, Kick Ass!

@KimCoulson-g7q

Any reveal is always years after actual deployment.

@Samkoutloud

Should call it "The Shooting Star"

@tklube308

Did yall know that the SR-72 is sometimes known as "the son of Blackbird "?

@vanroeling2930

Flying at an altitude of 880,000 feet 4:38 ?  Really??

@ddavewii

880,000? Or 88,000.

@MAGaBAMA_84

880,000 ft is 166.6 miles!! Since LEO or Low Earth Orbit starts at around 100 miles. Wouldn't make sense to go over 80 miles
