SR-72 'Darkstar'

  1. Fixed Stability Issues
  2. Ramjet on Activate 1 instead of Trim
  3. Heating effect at Mach 3 added.
  4. No need for a Chute. Brakes work.

I could make it go Mach 10 but to be frank, it's just absurd in the game.

Description

The Lockheed Martin SR-72 is an American hypersonic UAV concept intended for intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance proposed privately in 2013 by Lockheed Martin as a successor to the retired Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird. The company expected an SR-72 test vehicle could fly by 2023.

The SR-72 is to be similar in size to the SR-71 at over 100 ft (30 m) long and have the same range, with entry into service by 2030. The SR-72 follows the US Air Force's hypersonic road map for developing a hypersonic strike weapon by 2020, and a penetrating ISR aircraft by 2030.

Controls:

• Throttle up for the Turbine engines
• Activate1 to activate the Ramjet
