It would certainly help the site "suck" less....

2495 You've no doubt heard of the recorded sonic booms that have been traced from Nevada across the East coast.

@ blilov. Afghan may have lots of peeps on it, but they skate on thin ice where flightline photography is concerned. The RQ170 flew for 3 years before it got seen in daylight and photographed.
@ all - hope you all stay well - got a project starting and will be back on the forum on the 10th of eptember 2011. See you all then. Oh and the x37b goes up soon and we expect more iranian and north korea orbits and alot of action from Sprint. Seems they two parts of a very large recon effort for suprise overflights. Stay well, seen you in September.

Good luck with your project....look forward to your return.

Your posts, as usual, are simply awesome.....gives everyone a taste....but doesn't give up any known serious family jewels.

Try to keep hidden from the black helos.

Aerospace historian Peter Merlin says these pictures look fake. If you want people to believe, then there isn't a valid reason not to post the unadulterated full resolution shots if you have them.

Fight on!.....

Is that the same Peter Merlin on the dreamland site?.....

Ok, so...totally and possibly unrelated...and it's probably something that 2495 would already know about...but any of your space coasters (FL) get anything weird last week? As in this weird... http://www.wftv.com/news/27239681/detail.html (with video of sound http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KgxKVZBqCXw).

A friend linked me to this yesterday, and it seemed all too coincidental, especially since the X37 is up right now.

[FightinBluHen51]

Maybe needs it's own thread, but...figured I'd keep it here since we're tracking.

Is that the skunkworks logo?......btw pretty ****ing cool mate.

The B2 was announced that way if I remember correctly and wasn't it Desert Shield/Storm that brought the F-117 into public view, or maybe Panama?

I may be late to the party on this...it was desert storm that the F-117 flew

It is the skunk indeed.

Yes, and a number of other missions. But first mission was in Panama. But ODS is when they got wide publicity.

if it was I really never heard about it (not even rumors from the PDF POW's) I mean I was there, but that doesn't mean I was privy to everything...

oh no i never talk about the UKs stealth demonstrator. However if you spoke to people outside warton you know it always launched with a hawk in its shadow and always when they ran engine tests on the ground to mask the noisw.

How does the proposed existance of these fit in with Britain's acquisition of the F-35 and the apparent lack of a domestic British fighter program? Is it technology that will be roled out in a UAS (son of Taranis) or a future domestic fighter program (which seems unlikely) or the UK keeping its hand in the technology game or a joint Anglo-American system which simply isn't used in public?
