anyone know why the SR-71 won't work with LiIon batteries?

I smell a high priced military spec

modification service being offered by APL.

Say $1500 to modify your sr-71a.

Actually a pair of the appropriately rated CRD's or fets wired for

same would

be better than either diodes, or resistors.

First of all, sir, my bird is not the A bird, but the original badass, let's

all please get that straight. So it'll cost even more to mod, say, $2k.

At least..

And if you mean Current Regulating Diodes, I'll top your CRDs with

mine: Control Rod Drives used in the NUCULAR industry. Eh, how's

that?

Spare no badass expense, sez ai!

Indeed. James Caan does a great impression of it in the movie Get Smart.
