B-58 Hustler Bomber.

A supersonic strategic bomber developed by Convair and operated by the U.S. Air Force in the 1960s. It was the world's first practical bomber to exceed Mach 2, tasked with high-altitude, ultra-high-speed penetration missions to evade Soviet radar networks during the Cold War.

It is equipped with four J79 turbojet engines, achieving a top speed of Mach 2.1, and features a tailless delta wing (triangular wing) suited for high-speed flight. Its slim fuselage, with a crew of three (pilot, bombardier-navigator, and defensive systems officer) seated in a single file, is a distinctive characteristic.

A major feature is the attachment of large armament and fuel containers (pods) beneath the fuselage. After reaching the target from high altitude, operations envisioned jettisoning the pod—nuclear weapon and all—to enable even faster withdrawal.

Due to technological advancements that improved the performance of air defense missiles, necessitating a reevaluation of the "high-altitude high-speed flight" strategy itself, as well as the aircraft's high maintenance costs, all units were retired in 1970.
