kgwilson Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 Looks like a cross between a paper dart & a dragon & cost $US1.5 billion in the 60s. What would that be in todays dollars? The project was cancelled in 1961 due to the introduction of ICBMs, but they carried on & built 2 prototypes that flew in 1964. One crashed after a midair collision in 1966 & the other retired in 1969 & is now in the US Airforce national museum in Ohio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deskpilot Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 Did the pilots get sea-sick whilst taxiing. That nose sure bounced a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
