Zebra_X (13249) On Supersonic Flight

So if the Blackbird has issues with heating - you can bet that any other plane operating at that speed or higher will have the same problem. Unfortunately it is difficult to find a place to dump the excess heat. Any surface that comes into contact with the airstream causes friction, and heat buildup. You can use the fuel as a coolant, and the blackbird did. The JP-7 fuel that the blackbird used had an extremely high flashpoint. So it could be used to absorb some of the internal heat before being burned off.
