This airframe looks amazingly similar to the Lockheed SR-71
Blackbird and its construction, using titanium alloys, is also
similar.

Since both the SR-71 and the 188 were conceived in the 1950's,
could these similarities be more than a coincidence?

The honeycombed stainless steel skin is also reminiscent of the XB-70.
