@CrossWindsPat Nah if they used it to be real it's not to show off military might but to have plausible deniability. "Oh you mean you saw... A jet... That is similar to the one in a Hollywood movie? Sure okay buddy.

@ItsTsuki My grandpa worked at Lockheed and they honestly thought they were working on a missile. I forgot what he was actually involved in or he didn't say but information was compartmentalized. He did mention just getting 1% more efficiency from the engine would mean a huge payday haha. If you know someone older who has had an interesting job... Make sure you listen and get the information because they won't be around forever.

@CrossWindsPat "They" said they did it with Roswell and hence the explosion of microchips from then on and encouraged grey alien tropes. Then the military would help or fund scifi movies. They do help a lot of movies with things but is it reaaaaalllly just for recruitment purposes? Haha. I've seen a UFO with a friend about 12 years ago. I won't even begin to speculate what it was but I had a good minute to look at it with him before it took off like a bat out of hell. Near a sub base in CT.
