to my humble opinion U2 is one of the unique planes that were ever created. its mission- has lots to do with spying and taking pictures of strategical objects found rarely in nowadays. some planes user to be spying and foto-planes back at 60's and 70's during Israels big wars and among them Fanthom and Mirage but no one got near characteristics of U2.
