The Blackbird was very expensive to fly besides the Aurora perhaps took its place.

The AF recommissioned 3 Blackbirds a couple of years after retiring them. Makes me think the Aurora was made, it wasn't satisfactory, and they went back to the Blackbirds for a little while until they fixed the Aurora.
Of course, it could all be disinformation.
