When you’re speaking of military aircraft, even those who don’t fall into the category of folks who have their interest piqued by such a topic of discussion, the SR 71 Blackbird is quite a legendary plane that we would think many have heard of beyond the enthusiasts.

With many features that seem to be way beyond its time, the machine proved to be one of the most popular ever used in war. With one look at the thing, you would almost think that it’s the most modern and cutting-edge technology out there.

After being retired, we are left to look back on the Blackbird and all of its journeys along the way with many men and women who have ridden in the cockpit and made this plane their home away from home.

This time, we run through the stories of five countries who decided to try their luck and fire missiles at the legendary craft. Check out the video below that spills the beans on the backstory and tells exactly what happened in such scenarios.
