  1. Dislike. The claims that it was hypersonic and the fastest bomber ever designed both are nonsensical. First of all, fastest bomber ever designed was Silbervogel. But even if we only include jet bombers, it's not the fastest. On DSB-LK Mach 4.4-4.6 and even 3.8 were only CONSIDERED, there's no evidence supporting claim that it was actually ever designed for such speeds. The actual speed that this project had was Mach 2.8. That definitely IS incredibly fast, but it still is still below T-4's Mach 3, XB-70's Mach 3.1(which makes XB-70 the fastest jet bomber ever designed), SR-72's Mach 3.2-3.3 and YF-12's Mach 3.35.
