Not really sure of the connection to AM other than the name? You are aware of the origins of the name Valkyrie I assume, and it isn't this aeroplane of course.

Yes, but the car and the plane are both insanely cool and one of its kind.
Wasn't aware that the name "Valkyrie" was used for/by another product/brand and found it interesting.

This is the origin of the name...

Fierce female warriors from Norse Mythology, sometimes winged themselves or sometimes riding winged horses.

So an unsuccessful and far less graceful version of Concorde. Perhaps that's why the Americans were so narked when BA and Air France few supersonic to Washington and New York hehe
