Has the successor to the SR71 been built?

Reports speculating Lockheed Martin may have already built a successor to the SR71.

From this article https://www.avweb.com/eletter/archiv...t=email#230173

In his speech, Jack O’Bannon of Lockheed Martin was talking about “digital transformation” and let it slip that his company’s potential replacement for the SR-71 “could not have been made” without the new technology. Lockheed Martin had, until that point, only spoken of the so-called SR-72 in the future tense.
