"Smart use of taxpayer money?" They never ask that with the 860 billion dollar Pentagon budget that has failed 6 audits. For comparison NASA budget is about 5% of that.

Why doesn't Lockheed unveil their alien-replicated crafts to the public? We all know you have them now :)

[thesamedambub]

Uap 🛸 can still fly circles around that.

[ramon_ruiz]

More than 60 years later, Lockheed and NASA are unveiling the same tech we've already had, makes less noise, and it's a very slim possibility of making this into commercial use. Waste of tax payer dollars if you ask me.

[makedredd]

Nah, doesn’t look as sexy as Boeing’s Jellyfish UFO. 🪼 🛸

[trackertom]

That's a weird way of talking about a missile project

[_celeste_]

Whys is NASA spending time building jets? That's not their business. Go to space. Bring me some aliens.

[onemanmob]

Given the age difference it's more of a grandson, not a son. ...unless we are talking Al Pacino's family...

[onlyme]

Has a Captain Scarlet Angle pilot interceptor look, a bit

[YanLove]

Thanks Nichole, you are great! Much Love to you, and a big hug... ✨🥰🤗💚🌸✨

[shakets]

There's alreaddy anti gravitational machines that can do better, how is this plane better?

[kiandrah]

NASA needs my lunar land claim. I'll wait. The more you need it the more I get

[glenlapwing]

Fossil fueled aircraft are no longer interesting, nobody finds this exciting anymore

[Oblivionsurveyor]

not exciting at all, The starship will be used for commercial flight and be much much faster. Why travel on a plane when you can travel on a rocket?

[GorVala]

Why are they distracting with news anchors bold dome😂😂

[DaveLopez]

Tax dollars…. So we’re part owners then. 😅

[GorVala]

Brittany hair style back in business 😂

[mikeymike]

And carries only 3 passengers. Lol....

[AdamWest-qpyp]

That Concorde crash coincided with 9/11 which lead to lack of demand. Not retiring from the crash itself.

[DanFrederiksen]

She changed her hair slightly. Is that distress from serving israel's evil?
