Did the movie “Top Gun” reveal the fastest plane in the world?

Unparalleled success witnessed by the elephant “Top Gun: Maverick” by American star Tom Cruise, who entertained the audience with amazing aerial maneuvers, and raised questions about the “mythical” fastest plane in the world.

During the film Top Gun, an amazing plane appeared at great speed, which many experts considered the expected plane of Lockheed Martin, according to the “Drive” website.

In a number of captivating scenes in the air combat movie, a streamlined plane with a pointed head appeared in the sky at a missile speed.

Aviation experts said that the military plane that appeared in the movie is the “SR72 Dark Star” plane, which Lockheed Martin announced a plan for 9 years ago, and nothing was announced after that.

The “Dark Star” is the successor to the Lockheed Martin SR71 Blackbird, which was considered the fastest aircraft in the world, and was used for surveillance and security purposes, and its services were terminated in 1998, due to its high costs compared to achieving the desired benefit.

The SR72 Dark Star is the world’s fastest aircraft, which is set to exceed the speed of sound at six times.

The CEO announced earlier, the company’s partnership with the film Top Gun, to provide the advanced technologies in the film, and to provide the necessary aircraft, which increases the possibility of a “Dark Star” plane in the film.

Experts ruled out that the dazzling footage of the plane piercing the sky is real, because its operation costs millions, and the approval of the authorities to use it is now unlikely, but its design and features may be real and similar to the upcoming plane.

It is not yet known if global audiences witnessed the “Dark Star” plane for the first time in the film, or that the footage that appeared is a fictionalized plane, designed by Lockheed Martin.
