This is a beautiful piece of thick, exterior, mission flown SR-71 titanium from SR-71A "Super Skater" (61-7970). It has the quintessential Blackbird, black exterior coating on one side and was bent and torn by the violence of the crash impact. This aircraft was lost on 17 June 1970 following a post-re-fueling collision with the KC-135Q (59-1474) tanker. Lt. Col. Buddy L. Brown and his RSO Maj. Mortimer J. Jarvis both ejected and survived the accident. The SR-71 crashed in the western Texas desert, but the KC-135 limped back to Beale AFB, California with a damaged refueling boom and aft fuselage.
