today i woke up feeling that i should pay my respects to the king of speed, and then i spent the next 9 hours building this.
It's a Blackbird, it doesnt need an introduction, this is just the fastest manned jet plane to ever fly, it could go above mach 3.3 at 25km/85.000 feet. Thanks to it's amazing speed and altitude, it was pretty much invulnerable to any kind of aerial defense system, including mig25 interceptors and ground launched missiles.
This blakcbird i built can reach speeds as high as mach 3.4, and fly amazingly well at altitudes up to 25km.
Real blackbirds always took off with only enough fuel to get off the ground and perform aerial refueling, but we dont have this kind of luxury in SR2 yet, so you'll have to get this off the ground with all the fuel in it, to do so, just get throttle to max, and go forwards trying to pitch up untill you leave the runway, then it'll start flying.
I made so that the inlet spikes can move, just like on the real thing, use slider 1 to move them, they should be completely retracted for supersonic flight, and completely extended for subsonic.
If you try to get this thing back to where it doesnt belong (A.K.A: the ground) you'll have a hard time using roll controls, this thing just wants to keep itself in the air, and it'll do anything it can to stop you, so i reccomend you undershoot your turns, landings should be made at around 110-100m/s.
The chute is a life saver, the brakes on this are simply not enough to slow you down after a non-optimal landing, by the way, AG1 controls the landing gear.
This airplane took me a reasonable amount of time and a lot of effort to get done, so i hope you enjoy it, if you liked it, remember to upvote, it would be nice to have more people see this thing.
But anyways, be safe out there and have a good day.

It's a very nice edition of the original untouchable. I like the original Stealth Reconnaissance Edition just looked meaner lol plus it shows that they basically used paint that can go on ovens or stoves because the 500+ degree changes on certain sections of the craft. Good old school thinking was used on her design. That's why she forever holds that Golden Egg even though she was in service for so long. If you don't know what it is just ask. :)

@Edwards good job this is a beautiful and you made the plane with good air dynamic👍

@luke2007rocket @Edwards although if we are talking about planes with rockets then the space shuttle is the fastest manned craft to fly in the atmosphere on reentry. Unless the burns went faster

@JebediaKerman ey, sorry for taking this long to reply, but i finally managed to learn how to make helis, sit tight and i'll work on that

@lichangzhen yeah, one of the updates messed up the aerodynamic model, sadly it us unflyable, i might fix it someday

I'm no have any of you seen air wolf it is the fastest helicopter and I want to see some one make a working replica of it (p.s you should also see the show it is great)

If the center of gravity is not adjusted, it will crash when it takes off

@luke2007rocket well, the x15 isnt a jet, it is a rocket plane, and the a12 is basically the prototype for the blackbird, i clearly stated in the description "fastest manned jet to ever fly". but thanks for the comment anyways, have a nice day

Actually, the A-12 and the X-15 are both manned aircraft that are faster than the SR-71. The X-43 is faster than all 3 of those but the X-43 is not manned, though still, the A-12 and the X-15 are faster than the SR-71

it’s my absolute pleasure to applaud you for your dedication and design of this.
