Description
The Birth of an aviation legend began in September 1959 when the DOD and CIA decided that Lockheed would build a follow up to the vulnerable U-2 under the codename 'Oxcart'.
The Lockheed ‘Skunk Works’ design team lead by Clarence ‘Kelly’ Johnson designed and built the A-12 ‘Cygnus‘ - a single seat Mach 3+ capable aircraft that was way ahead of its time and it‘s Cold War adversary, the Soviet Union.
The A-12 ‘Cygnus’ was used with great success over North Vietnam operating from Kadena AB, on the island of Okinawa, Japan. The pilot workload in the A-12 was much higher than in other reconnaissance types due to it’s high performance with the pilot not only having to control an aircraft travelling at over 30 miles per minute, but he also had to operate the camera systems, Electronic Counter Measures equipment and of course navigate to, in and out of hostile territory while meeting up with lumbering but vital KC-135 tankers.
