Hmmmm....curious/strange. I went and had a look and you are right. My
foggy memory failed me. The A-11/YF-12A nosecones were different but
not like what is present in that image. It almost seems like an
intermediate morph between the A-11/YF-12A and the SR-71.

The other possibility is that someone bent it.
