Auto Credit Based on Supercraft888's (Closed) Bi-Plane challenge
Developed in 1984 as an experimental "jet biplane" concept, the NR-X Type B served alongside the SR-71 Blackbird as a reconnaissance aircraft. The plane was a success with the extra set of wings providing more stability and control at lower and higher speeds. The NR-X was capable of gliding and maintaining flight at speeds as low as 180mph, and could achieve speeds of 1200+mph at high altitudes.

-rating-
5.5/10 for aesthetics, it's not exactly graceful and aerodynamic looking like its sr-71 brother
8/10 for preformance, hella fast, flies pretty well too at those speeds
7.5/10 for description, it's cool! Provides backstory, provides instructions, good
7.5/10 for fun, pretty good spy plane
