$33m per craft? The newest gulfstream is $80m. The support costs were $300m per year. That figure can't be right

My friend and I did a project on this in elementary school, and my dad and I made a model of the Blackbird out of lego
You guys can ask me questions about the Blackbird that weren’t in the video

"Each of them was painted in a dark blue colour....this is the origin of its nickname: "The BlackBird""

If you can build a Spitfire, with self sealing tanks, surely you can build fuel tanks for the SR-71 that do not leak. Teflon lined bladders for example.
