美国空军国家博物馆馆藏 YF-12A 原型机。1959年美国空军取消预定取代F-106的XF-108三倍音速拦截机计划，除了整个计划成本高涨之外，苏联在弹道导弹领域方面的发展以及部署，使得美国本土面对的主要威胁不再是越过北极的轰炸机。当时为中央情报局设计生产A-12侦察机的洛克希德公司，提议以A-12的设计为基础来设计一款低成本三马赫机种。1960年下半年美国空军同意让洛克希德修改三架A-12进行测试，并给予编号为AF-12，到了1962年9月根据三军飞机通用编号改为YF-12A。（DAYTON, Ohio -- Lockheed YF-12A at the National Museum of the United States Air Force.）
