Synopsis
An illustrated account of the XB-70 Valkerie story, from its creation as the replacement of the B-52, to its abandonment after 15 years of development., Though production of the XB-70 Valkyrie was limited to just two prototypes, it remains one of the most incredible aircraft ever built. Conceived at the height of the Cold War, the XB-70 was envisioned as long-range, high-altitude bomber capable of Mach 3 at a time when fighter aircraft one-tenth its weight struggled to attain Mach 2. Eventually, however, advances in air-to-air missile technology made the bomber obsolete before it even entered service. This book is the complete story of the XB-70 Valkyrie, from its promising future as the most likely successor to the B-52, through its abandonment after 15 years of development. Explained and illustrated are the innovative technologies and materials introduced by the project and how they paved the way for future aircraft like the B-l, B-2, and F-117. Also described are the backroom politics associated with the XB-70 and the tragic crash that killed the crew of one prototype. Today, the surviving XB-70 is the centerpiece exhibit at the U.S Air Force Museum in Dayton, Ohio.
