Product Description

Product Description

Tasked with performing highly classified missions, Lockheed's SR-71 is an impressive military jet. This volume reviews the alliance between NASA and the Lockheed project, and features a fully detailed listing of USAF missions flown out of Kadena. Also detailed are the flights from Beale AFB in California and RAF Mildenhall in England, as the SR-71 monitored Soviet nuclear submarines in the Arctic Circle and the Baltic. The SR-71 story features contributions from 70 crewmembers and six generals who discuss their experiences and judgements of the Blackbird project.

5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT BOOK ON THE BEST PLANE BUILT IN AVATION HISTORY, 4 Jul 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Lockheed SR-71: The Secret Missions Exposed (Hardcover)
As a young kid I heard only heard stories of a jet that is able to fly at mach 3 and above 80,000ft. Years later I was able to finally get this book on the jet and was amazed to read on the planes history and it impact on war torn countries. This plane is the only thing that was able to stop a war in the middle east not politicans. We need this plane to be upgraded and deployed again. This book overall shows the worth of the money that goes into this plane's mission to keep peace for America and other countries.
