The North American Aviation XB-70 Valkyrie is a retired prototype version of the planned B-70 nuclear-armed, deep-penetration supersonic strategic bomber for the United States Air Force Strategic Air Command.
Designed in the late 1950s by North American Aviation (NAA) to replace the aging B-52 Stratofortress and B-58 Hustler, the six-engined, delta-winged Valkyrie[2] could cruise for thousands of miles at Mach 3+ while flying at 70,000 feet (21,000 m).

The planes I like were built in numbers that disqualify them from the thread.
