If these are the US "black ops", what happened to the back engineered anti-gravity alien tech ?....These are just planes with jet engines ...No ?

Antigravity craft doesn't necessarily mean alien tech Boeing have been looking into it for decades and before them the Luftwaffe

Nope. That one is still on the drawing board.

But no evidence is not proof either though.
The shuttle was on the drawing board in 1969. It didn't fly until 1981, but it was under development from the 1960s as well.
The program formally commenced in 1972, although the concept had been explored since the late 1960s, and was the sole focus of NASA's manned operations after the final Apollo and Skylab flights in the mid-1970s. The Shuttle was originally conceived of and presented to the public in 1972 as a 'Space Truck' which would, among other things,

There are clues in another thread. Enough to put together a few things.
The A-12 Avenger II was envisioned by McDonnell Douglas and General Dynamics as an all-weather, carrier-based stealth bomber for the U.S. Navy and Marines. Shrowded in secrecy at the time of development in 1983, the A-12 reportedly gained the nickname “Flying Dorito”. Concept drawings and mock-ups show a flying wing design in the shape of an isosceles triangle, with the cockpit near the apex.
Development of the A-12 was hampered by problems. The project was cancelled in January 1991 by then-Secretary of Defense Dick Cheney when the estimated price of each plane allegedly hit $165 million. The cancellation was said to be a breach of contract, resulting in years of legal wrangling. In 2009, a court finally ruled in favour of the government and ordered the contractors to pay more than a $2 billion in charges, but the battle ranges on to this day.

Do any of these planes look black to you, or straight edged, or B2 like?
