    Holy shit :shock: , isn’t that that Aurora deal that their always alleging is at area 51?

    Aurora came from the F-117 project. It was a temporarily used codename. Estes, the model company, and a few others, put out “Aurora” models, which were just SR-71s with other crap molded onto them. That’s where the hole Aurora bit comes from. They’ve been working on this crap since the 40s.

    Scramjet tech has become a reality. Far out dude… :beer:

    USA, USA, USA, I love this place. These teckies will have us flying into orbit in a few years. The enemy would have us using camels if they had there way and the libs would have the airforce using Yugos. Damm I love red, white and blue.

    I would fly with her to Los Ang. any ole time….. :twisted: :twisted:

  7. Old Technology

    What ever you see now is probably old technology. The USA is always running 10-20 years ahead. Mark this day and see what technology comes out in just 5-10 years. Do you remember seeing the F-117 Stealth Fighter for the first time? When it was undergoing test flights, civilians who managed to catch a glimpse of it thought it was a UFO :shock: :beer:

    We were working on this plane over 20 years ago as the x-30 NASP.

    Just imagine, no need to station air support in so many palces around the world, we could have pilots take off form CONUS in the morning, refuel over water, bomb Iran, and be back home stateside before dinner…

    As many people that supposedly hate the US, when we can close more bases around the world, and those towns that have taken our financial support for granted return to 3rd world lifestyle levels, I can imagine the UN demanding we (the US) do more to supprt countries that want is to leave them alone.

    I wonder what the fuel is…
    I hope it’s not $5 a gallon.

    It has been rumored that the new military transports will be running on Jihad pig fat. The US military has been grinding up and using this fuel in Iraq and Afghanistan. Some reports after the surge report the US Government might be changing fuels now, because Jihad pig fat is becoming harder and harder to get. They have also canceled aircraft getting a new glass or a dinner plate after a fill up. :razz:
