In 1970 the Sukhoi Design Bureau won a design competition to develop an advanced strike/reconnaissance aircraft utilising technology from the T-4 programme. The T4MS. Designed to have an intercontinental range, Mach3+ speed, and the ability to use 'existing Russian airfields' it only progressed through the preliminary design stage.

Boy, I would have sworn it was a Valkyrie if that big star wasn't painted on the side.

Another big clue is the single fin.

Yeah, good point. I think the Valkyrie also had 6 or 8 jet nozzles instead of just the 4.
