It was designed to fly at speeds exceeding Mach 3 and at altitudes of up to 85,000 feet, making it virtually invulnerable to enemy defenses. The Blackbird was used extensively during the Cold War to gather intelligence on Soviet military capabilities, and also saw action in a number of other conflicts, including the Vietnam War and the Gulf War.\r\nOne of the most famous Blackbirds was the 61-17974, which was operated by the U.S. Air Force from 1967 until its retirement in 1990. It holds the record for the fastest air-breathing manned aircraft, with a top speed of 2,193 mph (3,529 km/h). The 61-17974 was also involved in several important missions, including Operation Eldorado Canyon, which was a U.S. military operation against Libya in 1986.\r\nThe 1:72 scale model of the SR-71 Blackbird 61-17974 is a highly detailed replica of this iconic aircraft. It features a sleek black finish with authentic markings and detailing, and is made from high-quality materials to ensure durability and accuracy.
