Did the YF-12 have a "nickname"?[edit]

The A-12 was called Oxcart. The SR-71 was Blackbird. Did people call the YF-12 one of those names, no name at all, or did they give the YF-12 a third name among these related aircraft? 2601:644:8500:2823:6865:9CDD:37EC:A865 (talk) 21:31, 8 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No name was applied to the YF-12. These were pre-production aircraft and only 3 were built plus 1 conversion (YF-12C) from a SR-71. They were only used for testing. -Fnlayson (talk) 21:50, 8 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
