NASA used the North American XB-70 Valkyrie for high-speed research from 1966 to 1969. Although built as a US Air Force supersonic bomber prototype, the two XB-70 aircraft were heavily used by NASA for flight testing to study aerodynamic, structural, and handling characteristics at speeds around Mach 3
