If you want to take photos or made some electronic survey, you may be
right about SR-71, but you don't need anymore since the effective use of
spy satellites. But if you want carry and drop something (human, etc.)
what can you do with a SR-71? Parachuting it while cruising at an
altitude around 100,000 feet, at a speed around 3.5 mach?..:-)
His logic is completely true here, since from the beginning of the
thread, since people here are talking about delivering something, not
surveying.
Not a better spy plane, but way better spy carrying plane, I
suppose..:-)
