A USAF SR-71 high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft. A reconnaissance aircraft (colloquially, a spy plane) is a military aircraft designed or adapted to perform aerial reconnaissance with roles including collection of imagery intelligence (including using photography), signals intelligence, as well as measurement and signature intelligence.
Designated RB-57F, the design was almost an entirely new aircraft with a three-spar wing structure of 122 feet span, powerful new Pratt & Whitney TF33-P-11 main engines and two detachable underwing J60-P-9s for boost thrust at high altitude. The aircraft carried high-altitude cameras which were able to take oblique shots at 45 degrees up to 60 ...
These powerful engines also allowed the large and complex interceptor to attain supersonic speeds at low altitudes under 1,500 m (4,900 ft).

A full-scale mock-up was completed and one aircraft was partially completed. It was designed as a high altitude long-range reconnaissance aircraft. [3] The X-16 design was breaking new ground with its design. Its wing was long 114 ft 10 in (35.00 m) with a high (11.9) aspect ratio. The structure was significantly lighter and more flexible than ...
