US Air Force officially acknowledges SR 72 Darkstar

Some even think it’s already in production .
Capable of reaching Mach 6, junior is supposedly double the speed of the now decommissioned SR71
With the advent of hypersonic missile technology and the most up to date stealth technology, as well as a bunch I’m sure we’re not aware of just yet, here’s an answer to Russia that cannot be ignored.

What? Why would they reveal this? It makes no sense.

Oh LOL.
This tells me that Russia is ahead of us in hypersonic technology in all aspects.

the prototype for the SR 71 the YF-12A started in the late 50's.
Ask yourself, "if they could develop the SR 71 in the late 50's early 60's, what does the AF have nearly 50 years later?"

If they're going public, they already have something better.

Russia ahead in Super Sonic tech
I was under the impression that we were lagging behind Russia in this field. Idk, if that was just propaganda to get the US Government into investing more. If Russia does have the tech. Have we seen any proof of it in the Ruski/Uke War?

Similarities to the Aurora aircraft from the 90s are interesting. Wiki Link

You must not be old enough to remember the Cold War. I say that because we were constantly fed information on how advanced and deadly the Soviet’s gear was and they were so far ahead of us in every aspect of military technology.
Then the Iron Curtain fell, followed by the First Gulf War and we quickly saw their tech was pure dog shite.
