## Description

The legendary XB-70 Valkyrie Mach 3 bomber experiences catastrophic tire blowouts and fires during emergency landing. This was the fastest strategic bomber ever built during the Cold War era.
At Mach 3 (over 2,000 mph), friction heated the aircraft to 300-600°F. Tires absorbed this massive heat during flight, then exploded on landing under extreme weight and stress.
Only 2 XB-70s were ever built - engineering ahead of its time but unforgiving.
???? Why the fire?

Superheated tires from Mach 3 flight
500,000+ lb landing weight
Tire blowouts exposed magnesium wheels
Hydraulic fluid ignited on hot components
