Tom Clancy on Charlie Roses's show

Here is something that was interesting that Clancy mentioned. Rose was asking him about things that people in the government tell Clancy on the QT. Clancy replied that he suspected that the Airforce had a paticular plane is still very secret and asked his source if existed. His source replied that it was real. Rose quieried Clancy about it. Clancy wouldn't tell him but said, "It was very fast." Rose tried one more time and got the same answer.


A number of years ago the Airforce decommissioned the SB71 Blackbirds as recon aircraft... however after a time they put a few of them back into service. The speculaton was that the Airforce was having problems with whatever it had replaced the Blackbirds with?

Perhaps all those sightings of Fly Saucers around area 51 are for real and that is the next generation of Airforce aircraft????

Maybe they are using UFO technology stolen from the Rosewell crash...Who knows ? The Germans had some prettty futuristic stuff back in 1944 too...

He is speaking of the Aurora and its not exactly the US's best kept secret.

You can buy a revel aurora model that is likely to be 95% accurate about the appearance of the plane and if you do an internet search for 'secret plane aurora' you can learn a lot more about it.

It looks a lot like the SR71 and some wiley investigators have used seismic data from the USGC from the aircrafts sonic boom to have clocked it doing over 5K MPH. There is also a lot of good photography of the distinct contrails left behind by the plane that people refer to as soap on a roap.

Its neat to think how secret technologies are always decades ahead of where the public is allowed to know where we are at.

Its also such a shame too. When I was a student at U of F I worked as an assistant in the machine shop buiding equipment and apparatuses to support the millions of research dollars that was being spent to study scramjet technology for the next generation of space planes.

Its sad to think all that money and research time was being dumped down the toilet since some secret research lab, probably Sandia, had already figured it out years ago.

Oh yeah, I also think that Clancy is a hack and propagandist for the CIA and other shady 'intelligence' organizations.
