I would suspect the replacement be not bigger than a bread box and as quick as a meteor, skipping across the top of our atmosphere like a flat stone across a pond.

Little bit of history…
The SR-71 was the last aircraft developed by Lockheed’s Skunkworks in which the design involved NO COMPUTERS. They used slide rules! Kinda’ crazy to even consider in our computer-saturated world of today, especially considering its awesome-factor …of 11.
