SR-71 (M-21 #06940) and Shaun

The M-21 is one of the few projects at the Skunk Works that was relatively unsuccessful. The M-21 is an A-12-like aircraft designed to launch the once ultra-secret D-21 Drone. When the United States signed a treaty to end flights of manned vehicles over the Soviet Union, an unmanned vehicle was needed for reconnaissance.

Cool. Seeing this M-21 was the highlight of my visit there several years ago. Nice comp and capture.

Excellent vantage point for this aircraft, and some great shadows, too.
