L.A.T.1961 Posted October 2, 2021 #4 Share Posted October 2, 2021 55 minutes ago, Jon the frog said: new cruise missile ? It could be or a drone. Using the truck wheels for scale it is not big enough to fit a pilot, if full sized. Also no visible flight control surfaces ? So not a flight test vehicle? There does appear to be a mounting point for attaching to a pole for radar reflection checks. This is done with the fuselage upside down. So this is also, probably, upside down on the trailer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trelane Posted October 2, 2021 #5 Share Posted October 2, 2021 Mock ups are generally used at the radar cross section facility. The size of the item is not indicative of what could end up being a production model craft/weapon(?) I will say there are many exotic items that get tested and never meet project requirements and are ultimately scrapped. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+and-then Posted October 2, 2021 #6 Share Posted October 2, 2021 IF it's real, we have more security issues than I would have believed. NO WAY anyone should be able to get close enough to film a prototype. It could be some kind of hypersonic weapon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's a discontinued program then it would likely be declassified depending on test results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
