Mach 6.7: The X-15 Remains the Fastest Airplane to Ever Fly
*Caleb Larson* *U.S. Air Force, Americas* It's flight record has stood for over half a century. *Here's What You Need to Know*: The X-15’s Mach 6.7 flight record has remained unbeaten for over half a century. The date was October 3rd, 1967. U.S. Air Force test pilot William Knight was flying North American Aviation’s X-15, a rocket-powered airframe.

The same rule applies to nations. The great nations thrive by eating the small (weak and foolish) nations.

The temperamental nature of the design, the collapse of the Soviet Union, and the success of the Super Hornet made the Tomcat superfluous by the 2000s, however, and the Navy now lacks a long-range interceptor.

A traditional economics concept taught in school concerns “guns and butter,” two different resources that a state can put different amounts of effort towards producing.
