SR-91 Aurora

See also: Aurora

Aurora is the name generally allotted to hypothetical a American reconnaissance aircraft , developed starting from the middle of the years 1980, and successor of the Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird withdrawn from the active service.

On the basis of the fact that the Lockheed Martin F-117 Night Hawk was revealed officially only several years after its beginnings in active service, it is possible that the US Air Force has “secret weapons”.

The Aurora would be capable of flight Hypersonique (Mach 5 and +, more than 6.000 km/h), with an original device of propulsion (special fuel like the Hydrogène or Méthane, Statoréacteur, Moteur with pulsated detonation waves, propulsion Magnétohydrodynamique, etc).

Reality or hypothetical, Aurora is related to the program of the bomber Northrop B-2 Spirit.

According to what one can call the “official version”, popularized by the memories of a manager of the company Lockheed, the name Aurora corresponded to the budgetary name of B-2. The partisans of the Théorie of the plot believe that it is rather the reverse: the program would have had an official and traditional face, represented by B-2, and a secret face, represented by Aurora. One would thus have presented like related spending to B-2 the development of technologies of Aurora, which would explain the amazing cost of B-2 (2 billion dollars part) whereas in addition it seems very traditional.

This theory contradicts the current policy of the US Air Force which privileges the Drone S furtive of recognition, but the theorists of the plot make go up the origin of Aurora at several decades.

During Russian of this machine would be developed in program “AJAX”.
