Nope the U-2 is still going strong. (not bad for a plane with 50 years service - the first flight was in 1955)

The SR-71 was retired.

#5 The SR-71 was retired.

The Air Force brought two of them back and refurbished them. They're still stationed at Beale AFB, California. I'm not sure what missions they're flying, if any.
