Nope, you're not getting a 4+ foot long model for $25 buxx... Sorry Charlie... **Q: If it comes with a d 21 drone then isnt it an m21 black bird and not an sr71?** A: Yes that makes it a m21. **Q: New to models. I was suprised no cement was included. What should I purchase for child to use to assemble the model?** A: Testors makes a non- toxic plastic cement for models. You may be able to buy it on Amazon, but I buy most of my model supplies from Hobby Lobby! **Q: I find it amusing, according to the product description, the SR-71's color is white?** A: from the manufacturer: This is a 1/72 Scale SR-71A Blackbird Plastic Model Kit by Revell. Suitable for Ages 12 & Older. FEATURES: Highly detailed plastic pieces molded in black Accurate surface details GTD-21 surveillance drone with cart Decals with authentic US Air Force markings Waterslide decals Illustrated instructions ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing kit *by J***A on February 26, 2026* A amazing kit and amazing photo opportunities (sadly I don’t have the red stripes due to my bad history with accidental rips of decals) overall amazing kit ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ SR-71 awesome kit and must have *by D***S on April 26, 2026* Really awesome yet easy model Sr-71.I thought this kit was going to be a nightmare to work on but no it was really straight forward and easy .I added a wreathing affect and the drone on top .This kit is a must have due to this being THE FAST JET EVER !!! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great gift *by A***D on February 1, 2025* This SR-71 Blackbird model is a fantastic gift for any aviation enthusiast! The details are impressive, from the sleek lines to the accurate markings. It's a beautiful replica that looks great on display. Assembly was mostly straightforward, though a few of the smaller pieces were a bit fiddly. The only minor downside is that it's a bit fragile, so it's definitely more of a display piece than a toy. Overall, a wonderful and appreciated gift! ## Frequently Bought Together - Revell 85-5810 SR-71 Blackbird 1:72 Scale 66-Piece Skill Level 4 Model Airplane Building Kit - Cement Glue Value Pack Testors 2-7/8 fl oz tubes - Rustark 9Pcs Gundam Model Tools Kit Hobby Building, Repairing and Fixing Set for Kids --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/1796368-85-5810-sr-71-blackbird-1-72-scale-66-piece](https://www.desertcart.us/products/1796368-85-5810-sr-71-blackbird-1-72-scale-66-piece) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-05-13*
