The Lockheed U-2 “Dragon Lady” is one of the most legendary and secretive spy planes ever built — a high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft that changed the Cold War and reshaped global intelligence forever. Capable of flying above 70,000 feet, the U-2 gave the CIA and U.S. Air Force an unmatched view into the most heavily guarded nations on Earth, from the Soviet Union and China to Cuba and Vietnam.From top-secret black-budget origins to 70 years of service, the U-2 remains one of the most feared, admired, and essential intelligence platforms ever made.#U2 #DragonLady #U2SpyPlane #CIA #USAF #ColdWar #SpyPlanes #LockheedU2 #GaryPowers #AerialReconnaissance #MilitaryAviation #ColdWarHistory #HighAltitude #NASA #Espionage #MilitarySecrets #AircraftHistory
