The Pratt & Whitney J58-P4 engines used in the Blackbird were the only American engines designed to operate continuously on afterburner, and became more efficient as speed increased. Each J58 engine could produce 32,500 lbf (145 kN) of static thrust.

The faster you go, the faster you can go. yikes!

The time tunnel blackbirds are the same planes from the future.

Blackbirds are by far more badass looking.
