What is the most exotic military technology that USA has?

There were faint lights on the wing tips.

Like i said there are a lot of new technologies that can be put into many a platform. So you coulda seen anything. We got a few things that could be your aircraft.

Where was this sighting btw.

Regarding my sightings. In all honesty ive never made a thing up. We really do have a lot of amazing stuff.

Ive seen over 5 different classified aircraft doing their thing over southern california. From the TR3B to the Greenlady to gen 6 fighters to what happened to the yf23. Shes bigger and badder than ever before. People should spend more time looking up.

Ever seen a fighter initiate a Kerr effect. Pretty awesome to see.

Perrenporth, UK. Look it up on Google earth/maps. I was on the beach and it came in from the North.

Who's asking?

Interesting a few members from the UK have been seeing and hearing some interesting stuff the last few years.

When it comes to these technologies the UK is super tight with the USA. And any way you slice it BAE is one of the preeminent leaders in this tech. BAE works very closely on many usa projects and even has a lot of proprietary technology involved in most of the usa top black programs. Serioysly BAE is every bit as awesone as lockheed.

Also no rods from god. And haarp is not a weapon although it did develope a lot of stuff the military keeps near and dear although they arent weapons either.

Like you're gonna know? Hardly... But I'm sure unimaginable... and you'll never know about it... Or you're gonna fond photos...

To be honest a lot of unsavory foreign folks from countries like china do pose as members on occasion and fish for info. Which is one of the reasons a lot of those in the know here on ats dont divulge much.

And also the DIA watches the aviation forum here like a hawk. You dont want to piss off the DIA....ever.

Probably taking off from bases we joint use in Scotland and was heading south to get info on africa or skirting around europe and then punching into the middle east for isr before landing either somewhere undisclosed in the pacific region or stateside.

a reply to: BASSPLYR

I know that bud. BAE have radar systems that put US tech to shame. That Tyranis drone is pretty interesting too.

a reply to: BASSPLYR

I'm actually quite happy to hear they found a new home form the YF-23 platform in some fashion. That was absolutely the superior aircraft and I was really dissapointed that Lockheed won that bid.

I suspected from Scotland too. I remember seeing Vulcans taking off from up there when I was a kid. There was a crossing where we had to stop the car so the Vulcans could take off without causing road accidents lol.


That was in the 80's btw. Cold war era.

The usa has a new radar system i wont name. Zaphod58 did a thread on it but it went over most peoples head.

But we have a very interesting very advanced radar system thats undetectable and very long range and very accurate resolution wise. Works like no other radar in the past including BAE. But i bet BAE is written in on it and know all about it.

a reply to: BASSPLYR

stupid idea?
its much better than space lasers

a reply to: BASSPLYR

Fair enough. I was only going by the most recent info I'd read. It was probably a year or two ago. Guaranteed that BAE and Lockheed etc share tech though.

a reply to: humanoidlord

Rods from god.... Yeah its a stupid idea.

Who says the lasers are spacebased. But even if they were why are they lame to you. Also i wouldnt exactly call it a laser although it technically could be called one.

a reply to: Wide-Eyes

Dont get me wrong BAE is the very best at some things they do. Thats why lockheed works so closely with them. Who do you think came up with that Kerr effect thing i mentioned earlier.

a reply to: BASSPLYR

Sorry, my mistake. It was Nimrods that were taking off. They were about a 150 feet, maybe less above us.
