no but I’d say that 30 minutes at mach 3 is more impressive than 3 hours at mach 2
you realize that the most economical cruise speed for the XB-70 was mach 3 right?
care to explain? never seen anyone say thats the best looking aircraft to ever exist
I said supercruise, I don’t see where the xb70- could reach mach 3 without the use of ab
I agree its not supercruise but the XB-70 cruising speed is actually at mach 3
can the Concorde flap its wings
I know that, probably as impressive as being able to sustain twice the speed of sound without the use of ab considering the concorde has 4 engines
no, does the xb70 have droop snoot ; )
isnt that only for taxiing
for taking off and landings too

so it has 0 benefit for performance, unlike XB-70 flapping wings
well no, it’s actually quite helpful for pilots at least
i said performance not pilot.
As long as it’s prettier, that’s all it matters

A-12 series beats both in looks and performance anyways. while being older
Agree but that’s one of the worse pictures of Concorde haha.
But good nomination, nobody said it had to be military
