Here's a photo of the B-52 with the D-21 (oh, excuse me, I mean the 1966 model of Aurora ) and the rocket below it. And no. The B-52 never went Mach 3.

John, I stand corrected, you were right I was wrong.
When I looked at the clip I saw two gigantic air-intakes and that didnīt correlate for me , when I now see the D-21 (mind you) from above in your picture, I see that the deltawing isnīt completely straight at the front, that was my "air-intakes".
