The SR-72 is the successor of the SR-71 Blackbird, which served as a supersonic spy plane for the US. The SR-72 will be a hypersonic reconnaissance drone that can get anywhere in the world in less than two hours, making it very useful for the USAF. This craft will want to initially pitch up the moments after takeoff, but will pitch down in normal flight. It is fast and stable ( thanks to the modded engines and the dihedral design tweak that was implemented), but the only downsides a are that it does not have a very long flight time, and it tends to pitch down. THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE.
