Murph - a/c ?

Murph -

I am seeing some chatter about three supposed "secret" USA (or other?) aircraft at Tonopah:

- Sentinel
- Snowbird
- Hydra/Fallon

Any skinny on those?

They seem aprocryphal, to me.

It'd be nice to bust a bubble, if possible.

Who knows? The stealth fighter was flown out of there for about 10 years before anybody found out about it. There's a rumor about some kind of a/c which is powered by some kind of pulse jet that pushes it to over mach 4 and it's supposed to be pretty noisy but all that has been seen and photographed so far are contrails that look like a "string of pearls".

Just thought I'd check with you on it... apparently there is a whole group of people who do nothing but speculate about such things.
