Kind of looks like the old X-3. Stiletto I think it was called. Put under powered engines in it and hard a hard time going supersonic, looks be damned.

“Kind of looks like the old X-3.”

It does. Not too many remember the Stiletto. What is the purpose of this new plane or is it simply to test a design?

Had a model of X-3.

X-15 still holds records.
