Built for speed: an authentic piece of the SR-71, the world's fastest manned aircraft!
At the height of the Cold War, an advanced spy plane cruised over enemy territory, too high to be spotted, too fast to be shot down. Although many of its missions remain classified, the SR-71 has become one of the most iconic planes in aviation history.
This specimen is a metallic fragment from SR-71 61-7972. The material comes from a "turkey feather," flaps of metal that surrounded the jet's exhaust. This plane was retired in 1990 and is currently on display in the Smithsonian's Air & Space collection at the Udvar-Hazy Center.
