Re: Picture Of My DTS

Main Propulsion: 2 Pratt and Whitney J-58 axial-flow turbojets with afterburners
Take-off Thrust: 32,500 lbs. each engine (65000 lbs. total)
Maximum Speed: Mach 3.5 (2,500 mph)
Maximum Altitude: 100,000+ ft.
Range: 2,500 miles+ without refueling; intercontinental with refueling

That was one heck of an airplane. Too bad they were all decommissioned. Except for one or two that I think NASA still has.
