A rare photo of the 6-engine Valkyrie prototype. It was mean’t to be a nuclear-armed, deep-penetration strategic bomber for the United States Air Force Strategic Air Command, but the USAF eventually gave up fighting for its production and the B-70 program was retired in 1969. Fun fact, it was able to reach Mach 3.1!
