The YF-12 was a prototype high-speed interceptor derived from the A-12 spyplane developed for the Central Intelligence Agency by Lockheed's Skunk Works division. Cole Bowman flew one during the Big Brother mission in the near future.


Real-world history[]

The Lockheed YF-12 was an American prototype interceptor aircraft evaluated by the United States Air Force. The YF-12 was a twin-seat version of the secret single-seat Lockheed A-12 reconnaissance aircraft, which led to the U.S. Air Force's Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird twin-seat reconnaissance variant. The YF-12 set and held speed and altitude world records of over 2,000 mph and over 80,000 ft (later surpassed by the SR-71), and is the world's largest manned interceptor to date.

Games[]

The Lockheed YF-12 Prototype appears in Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X. 2 as an unlockable aircraft, priced at ?? points in the Wii version only.
