That's the most bonkers picture I have ever seen.

I assume it's a wind test - but is it being transported by the tractor or is the vehicle just passing.... I'm fairly certain is an SR71 Blackbird - I might try and look it up later

It's a great pic.

There's several planes that use the same template as the Blackbird, though weirdly the cockpit doesn't really look like any of them. Christ, I'm such a nerd.

it has the same cockpit as a boeing B1 tilt wing bomber which is from the same period - it could be one of the russian copycats - I'm not sure of the prevenance - it was a randon find

Weirdly that was exactly what I thought too...
