I would someday like to be transferred to 1th squadron and fly eurofighter typhooons the best strike fighters in the world in my opinion ( i know people will put the raptor but the tiffy is more manouverable)
anyway here is a kl pic of it refueling in mid air
I can't stand people liking the blackbird so much, so what if it's fast? No plane really has to go to mach 3. Plus, planes such as the Su 37 can go to mach 2.5 but still carry tons of missiles, do extreme maneuvers and quite literally pwns.
The Blackbird is not a fighter jet, it was used for Renaissance during the cold war. I don't think you would want a slow plane to outrun a dozen missiles.
