Before the F-117 was unveiled, I made a number of 'zaps' based on a picture of the 'Lockheed F-19', allegedly of the '???th TFW, Tonopah AFB' which I used to leave lying around in the USA - or stuck firmly under the perspex in various Base Ops planning rooms...
I also left one
inside the cockpit of a U-2 at Patrick AFB - they must have wondered about that!
Beags mate, came across this today:
This USAF Intelligence Squadron's Insignia Appears to Show the "F-19 Specter" - The Drive
Maybe there was a classified program (one of many) run at some time possibly 80s in parallel with F-117 utilising the 19 Specter shape then so decades later, an reserve intel unit of not much publicity unit badge has a fictional a/c on it?
Any thoughts?
cheers
