I LOVE IT!
its just so amazing!
its built in titanium and the most titanium comes from russia, so to build this plane to spy on russia, they had to buy titanium from them first! crazy! they used all kinds of dummie corporations to hide who really bought the titanium.
but the most crazy thing is that the plane is built for the temprature when its at ver high mach speed and since the titanium gets bigger the hotter it is its actually to small when on the ground so when fueling it up there are holes in the plane that disappear when it gets hot enough, but on the gound its fuel tanks cant hold the fuel, so the first thing it has to do after take of is to refuel since the fuel just runs straight out of the hull, and that first refuel in air is really dangerous since the fastest speed of the fuelplane is basically the stall speed of the blackbird so its VERY difficult to do and the first thing the pilots had to learn and if they didnt...no blackbird flying for them!

amazing plane! and still is the fastest plane ever!
