My name is Edgar Fouche. I’m the Chairman of the Board of Fouche Media Associates, whose main claims to fame are our book Alien Rapture and our Revolutionary New Behavior Modification Software - Neurosync MIME. You can also see a picture of the TR-3B on fouchemedia.com .
All the stories seem to be based of a technology which is almost exactly the same level as ours, or maybe a few dozen years in the future. The probability that another sentient species could come here and have technology which is close enough to ours that we could benefit from it has got to be very, very small.
So I think it's safe to discount all or nearly all stories of reverse-engineered alien technology.
What does 'FT' and 'BT' mean by the way?

The Top Secret SR-75 far exceeds the classified military speed and altitude records set by the old SR-71, which could fly at a still classified Mach 3.3 and reach a ceiling of 85 thousand feet.The SR-75 attained altitudes of over 120,000 feet and speeds exceeding Mach-5, or 5 times the speed of sound. That’s over 3300 miles per hour. From take-off to landing, the stealthy 75 can make the round trip from central Nevada to Northeast Russia and back in under 3 hours. It's 162 feet long and has a wing span of 98 feet. The belly of the vehicle stands 10 feet off the ground.
It carries a crew of 3 - a pilot, a reconnaissance officer, and a launch control officer, who doubles as the electronics warfare officer.
Two methane and LOx fueled, high bypass turbo-ramjet (combined cycle) engines are housed under each wing, and the bays run some 40 feet under the wings, terminating at the trailing edge of the wing.The explosive Pulsed Detonation Wave Engines that push the huge SR-75 to speeds above Mach 5, are now reported to be pushing Mach 7, or 4500 miles per hour, with the latest engine modifications.
Although this plane has been sighted on numerous occasions, has been picked up on military radar, and the pulse detonation wave contrail it leaves behind it has been seen, the Air Force vehemently denies its existence.
The 2 large engine bay inlets located under each wing of the awesome black SR-75 mother ship, hang down 7 feet from the underside of the wing and are twelve feet wide. You could drive a Volkswagen Beetle into one of the engine exhausts.The SR-71, and 75, and the daughter ship, the SR-74, were all built by the Lockheed Advanced Development Company, commonly known as the Lockheed "Skunk-Works."

Really? You would think that someone minoring in theoretical astrophysics would know that there are spaces after punctuation, and it's not "alot", its
"a lot"
Why is that? I have a BS in history and a Masters in International Studies and am horrible with spelling and grammar. In fact as a historian, I can tell you how unimportant you statement is. Grammar changes greatly over time, even in a short a period as 10 years. Not to mention the fact that a person's primary language can also make a big difference in writing.
