Description: Dragon Models 1:144 Warbirds 51022 North American X-15A Display Model USAF, #56-6670, Scott Crossfield, Edwards AFB, CA 1:144 Scale Length WidthNorth American X-15A 4.25" 1.75" This model represents the first of three prototype aircraft that were produced for the X-15 flight test program. The North American X-15 rocket-powered aircraft/spaceplane was part of the X-series of experimental aircraft, initiated with the Bell X-1, that were made for the USAAF/ USAF, NACA/NASA, and the USN. The X-15 set speed and altitude records in the early 1960s, reaching the edge of outer space and returning with valuable data used in aircraft and spacecraft design. As of 2011, it holds the official world record for the fastest speed ever reached by a manned rocket-powered aircraft. North American X-15A Designed as a hypersonic research aircraft for the X-Series of USAF/USN sponsored experimental aircraft, the X-15 was first flown on June 8th, 1959 (Unpowered) and September 17th, 1959 (Powered). The X-15 was not capable of conventional take-off, instead being dropped from a B-52 at altitude prior to firing its rocket engines. Three X-15s were built, completing a total of 199 flights between them, setting many altitude and speed records along the way. The highest flight took place on August 22nd, 1963 reaching an altitude of 67 miles, while the fastest flight was on October 3rd, 1967 reaching 4,519mph. Copyright 2003-2024 The Flying Mule, Inc. Dragon's 1:144 scale X-15 is a fast looking model constructed entirely of plastic with an internal metal weight to enhance overall feel. Many fine scale features are replicated such as the razor thin wings and tail plane. The front of the fuselage features an exceptionally fine and delicate air data sensor probe mounted to the nose and simulated cockpit windows angled for speed. The rear features exhaust nozzle details of the two XLR-11 rocket engines, delicate fuel intake ports and two wedged-shaped vertical tails. The model mounts to an elegant display stand that angles it to the heavens above. Copyright 2003-2024 The Flying Mule, Inc.
