Was passing over the base over the weekend and noticed this Delta wing jet . It's on Google maps as well so I don't think it moves.

It made the Kessel run in under 12 parsecs.

Looks like a mirage.

I believe they are in a vertical position.

You can see shadows from the canards in the pic you posted

It's probably over here for exercises where it will get destroyed and defeated by F-22's in simulated combat missions.

I work on Eglin, and where that thing is parked in that pic there's no way to get a good look at it from the road, so have never seen it, and I can't say I've seen anything like that taking off or landing either. Interesting.

Canards are slightly visible. You can also make out the twin engines.

Evidently the RAF has some in their squadron. Not sure if that is a working Typhoon but I was intrigued when I saw it on our flyover.

Now that I think about it, that's where Air Force 1 was parked when Trump visited the PCB area after Michael, and all I could see was the tail.
