Default 'Aurora' hypersonic sucessor to SR-71 Blackbird 'revealed'

'Aurora' hypersonic sucessor to SR-71 Blackbird 'revealed'


Shoot, I already TOLD you that Bill Fox, project coordinator at the
Skunk Works during the Blackbird program (and donor of everything in
our "Blackbird Suite"), freely admits that Aurora existed.

And that's about all he'll say. After that, he'll politely change the
subject...


Which either means that:

A) Lockheed developed a secret hypersonic aircraft

or

B) That he's yanking your chain, knowing that Lockheed developed the Aurora
(a P3 Orion derivative) for the Canadians. And that he can tell you the
truth (Yes, Aurora existed.), while still misleading you...
