Guess they should have done what the Chinese do, and parked it in a bunker.  :rofl:

I just looked and it's still on Google.

I don't think it's really all that secret. Where it's parked, contractors and all kinds of people can see it when they're on base.

Hasn't been all that much of a secret as I remember seeing info and IIRC pictures online a number of years ago

I wonder if someone wanted the Chicoms/Russkies/Norks to see this, much in the same way that someone wanted the Germans to see the inflatable decoy tanks in different parts of England before D-Day.
Trump won in 2016. Democrats haven't been so offended since Republicans came along and freed their slaves.

Do any of you remember the old "Voyage to the Bottom of the Seas" from the early 60s?  Do you remember the "flying sub" they had on the show in its last year or two?  Bright yellow and looked like a manta ray without the tail.
