Aviation Archive - X-Planes of the US - 31 Aircraft with the X-Factor

In this 43rd issue of 'Aviation Archive', we examine the 'secret' world of US X-planes, some of the most influential, fascinating, strange and breathtaking aircraft to ever take to the skies. It features stunning photographic coverage, including many exclusive and rare shots. We would like to thank NASA archives for many of the images and aircraft histories, together with manufacturers Boeing and Lockheed Martin.
