Awesome! I was wondering when somebody would do the Blackbird.
Any chance for A-12 and YF-12?

Ad, yes eswube is right what about the A-12 and YF-12?

Darth is a plane-making machine!
Nice additions and the SR-71 looks great, I'm surprised it took this long for it to get drawn.
I hope the S-3 hasn't got forgotten in the latest batch of drawings.

Susie-Q, a B-26B On June 26, 1942 did a torpedo run on the Akagi and a follow-up strafing run from stern to stem. She made it back to Midway after the attack, with most of the crew injured, the fuel tanks hit, radio and hydraulics both out. On landing they found the left tire destroyed, all propeller blades damaged, and around 500 bullet holes in the aircraft. Unfortunately the Mark 13 Torpedo was a dud (statistically 1 in 3 didn't work).
See:

Somewhere out there I've read the first hand account, a hair raising story that makes the link above pretty tame.

This is my first cut and paste/repaint. The Mark 13 torp. is my work.
