Could the YF-23 better than the F-22?

The article below this text is forming an interesting question, could the YF-23 be better than the F-22, what wins the race, and became the USAFs first supersonic stealth fighter. The fact is that these things form another question, and that thing is "if YF-23 was better aircraft why USAF selected F-22?". The answer could be very frightening and that is that (Y)F-23 was too lethal to take into service? And always we might want to know, what kind of things the USAF keeps secret? There are always things that that kind of air force reserves for its use, and course legends remain. 

The unconfirmed legend tells that YF-23 or F-23, what could be the product number of this aircraft is in similar use in the USAF what F-117 was before it was retired. So the F-23 took the place of the F-117 after one of those aircraft shot down over Serbia.  The F-117 has faced only one combat loss, and that means that this aircraft was not bad at all. If during all bombardment missions, what that aircraft has made only one plane has been destroyed, that thing doesn't mean that it has been a bad investment. 

So the thing is that there are many secrets, what the USAF doesn't want to tell to outsiders. And the thing is that successor to F-117 could be something, that the world has not seen yet. The Stealth program began in the year 1978 by using the name HAVE BLUE, and the question is when F-117 reached its operational status? And was that plane the first stealth aircraft, what used bombardment missions? 

The F-22 made its maiden flight in the year 1997.  And the newer  F-35 Made its first flight in 2006 that plane entered service in 2015. The eldering of F-22 has been noticed in many countries. And some U.S enemies have told that they could shoot down both F-22 and F-35. That means their successor has waited for a while. The willingness to sell F-35 to other countries has caused rumors that something is going on in the coulisses of the highly secured aircraft corporations. 

The brand new 6th. generation multirole aircraft is ultra-secret. And there is not accurate information shared. But the fact is that the plane has multirole capacity in air-combat, ground attack with conventional and nuclear weapons, EW, recon, and many other missions. The thing that makes that new aircraft interesting is it is kept secrecy out of the public eye.

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies?

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies? The simplest way to control zombies, which are made by using tetrodotoxin, which is called "zombie poison" is to use the automatic dispenser, which is normally used in diabetes treatment. In this case, the dispenser would be loaded by using tetrodotoxin. If the level of this poison is right, the person would be totally under the control of other people. And if the system cannot detect this poison there is a possibility to make the laboratory experiment when the staff will follow the decrease of the tetrodotoxin, and then the system can use a simple clock, which will inject poison to the body of a victim after a certain time. This would be an effective tool in the hands of military and counter-terror operators. Those zombies can be captured enemy operators, who will send back, and then they just kill their ex-partners. By using genetically engineered bacteria could be possible to create t...

The cyborg lichen can be one of the most exotic visions of what the high-tech civilization might look like.

.     The cyborg lichen can be one of the most exotic visions of what the high-tech civilization might look like. Above is the image of the nano-submarine. There is introduced an idea, that this kind of system would equip with living neurons, which makes it like some kind of artificial bug or mosquito. The idea is that the robot can take the nutrient by using the robot tube, which acts like a proboscis. The neurons can get nutrients and the rest of the machine can use small fuel cells or the energy to that system can deliver by using the radio waves. Futurologists are thinking about the ideas, what the hybridization of the neurons and machine would look like? Could the hyper-technical civilization look like the group of midget submarines? Those submarines might take nutrients for the neurons, what is living in them. The purpose of the midget submarines, which might be size less than a couple of millimeters would maximize the survivability of the neurons. One of the most intere...

The story of (Northrop?) TR3A "Black Manta"

    Image I The story of (Northrop?) TR3A "Black Manta" Sometimes there have been discussions that the mysterious TR3A "Black Manta" was a study project for the B-2 bomber.  That means that TR3A was used as the flying mockup for testing the aerodynamic and control solutions for the B-2 "Spirit" bomber. The thing that supports this thing is that the manufacturer of both planes is Northrop corporation.  Along with "Aurora" was flying one other mysterious aircraft, TR3A "Black Manta". The system is described as the "Stealth VTOL" (Vertical Take-Off and Landing) aircraft. Unless the mysterious TR3B, the Northrop TR3A is the conventional VTOL-aircraft, what is using regular jet engines, but what has the stealth-body.  Image II The thing is that the stealth-reconnaissance aircraft, which uses a similar technology with the Northrop B-2 bomber would be an interesting part of the weapon arsenal. There is a possibility that the TR3A was...
