Future Tech Lockheed Martin's highly anticipated uncrewed hypersonic aircraft, the SR-72 "Son of Blackbird," is allegedly scheduled to take its first flight in 2025.
The SR-72 is widely considered the natural successor of the SR-71 "Blackbird," which set speed records in 1974 and was retired by the USAF in 1998 as the fastest manned aircraft. The SR-72 is allegedly designed to be unmanned, hypersonic, and reusable. Its primary functions will likely be intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) activities.
