Davies. Of the many futuristic military aircraft concepts created in the 1950s, the North American XB-70 still stands out as the most awe-inspiring. With its huge, white partially folding delta wing, its fuselage resembling a striking cobra, and extraordinary performance, it was one of the foremost technological achievements of the twentieth century. The Valkyrie had a brief, costly decade of life but it proved the continuing value of developing manned bombers. Using full-color artwork and rigorous analysis, this is the complete story of the ultimate U.S. Cold War military X-plane. 80 pages, 9½" x 7", softcover.
