A-12 Oxcart

A-12 Oxcart

Many people mistake it for the SR-71 but the A-12 Oxcart was actually the predecessor to the famous Blackbird. Designed by Kelly Johnson and built but the folks at the Skunkworks, the A-12 was smaller and faster than its sibling and has specs that are still classified today but it flew both higher and faster than the SR-71. Enjoy this video of an RC model of the (less) famous A-12.
