Plasma off something hypersonic? Likely the "Son of Blackbird" (SR-72) they have been working on.

The history of the Skunk Works would make a great movie.

The SR-71 was in service years before it was made public.

If they’re announcing this, they’ve been finished with it for a long time.

They gave us a big teaser in Maverick

Skunkworks kinda loses its luster a bit when they are doing social media teasers

I'm sure there's a super squirrel works behind the curtain filling the role of skunkworks back before they were in a tom cruise movie.

They lost HACM. HALO was cancelled. ARRW isn’t a go again for sure yet. LRHW isn’t worth a teaser vid at this point. And LRASM, while being shoved down the throat at $10M per, isn’t hypersonic.

My guess is it’s either X59, some low speed expendable, or the CCA thing being pushed by AF.
