its an earlier model of the SR 71. i think they have 7 or 8 different kinds of blackbirds. each one improving on the next. the A12 was the first one but it flew the highest and fastest. it was impractical because of areodynamics. the flaps would bend at high speed to turn so it was difficult to controll it going average speed. then there was a 'double decker model' that had two cockpits that looked like they were shagging
