'Replica' of the original Unites States Air Force's Experimental Long Range Bomber, the XB-70 Valkyrie. This version has quite a few more jets than the original. The XB-70 was intended to be a long range strategic bomber, capable of carrying long range ballistic missiles, at high altitudes and speeds of up to mach 3. Unfortunately the XB-70 was never put into production, only a handful exist today and are not currently in use. This aircraft took about 6 hours to complete, was the most difficult aircraft I have build due to odd wing angles and designs. PLEASE Upvote I worked very hard on this. I do not reccommend mirroring this craft as many internal structures are asymmetrical and may cause issues. Apart from the vertical wings wiggling around it works great. Ag1=Parachutes for landing at high speeds (just like the real one). Thanks for downloading and please upvote!

@AceOfSpade Thanks!
Wasnt wings, wings were good, it was the ICBM that made it a redundant project. Awesome aircraft though.
@Cunningham
@AceOfSpade , yeah had something to do with air turbulance due to the wings. Sad cause these things are so cool
Nice, but 2 were built, and one was destroyed in an air-to-air collision.
