Caught these beauties flying over my home near SWF yesterday evening. Heard those 3350's coming frome over a mile away!

"According to the photo description (available on ConcordePhotos.com), the dramatic picture in this post features ‘Concorde G-BOAG flying at supersonic speed and is the only picture ever taken of Concorde flying at Mach 2, 1350 mph. This unique image was taken from a Tornado fighter jet, which rendezvoused with Concorde for just four minutes over the Irish Sea in April 1985. The RAF Tornado, rapidly running out of fuel, was struggling to keep up with Concorde. Cruising at Mach 2, Concorde stretches six inches from her normal 204ft length. Due to the heating of the airframe, she reaches 127 °C at the nose and trailing edges but the special ‘high-reflectivity’ white paint helps reflect and radiate heat.’ "

I'm looking for an occupation for my brother so he doesn't scroll all day on his phone so I figured I'd buy an ariplane model he can build and construct but I can't seem to find any online. Does anyone know if they still make them like this? Here is the reference from the Stardust video: https://youtu.be/FQlAEiCb8m0?si=g3QIevYYtLFUBziF

First time seeing a B-2 over my house in Maryland. I've only seen them on the news. There were multiple aircraft flying around yesterday in the afternoon.
