Current Events > Does the government really have secret tech?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Pretty sure that's impossible as the inventions of all the big tech companies are made public as soon as they are created and moreover is in their profit to make those products consumer Delight by the public rather than trying to contract them out to a government.

Most of it was designed to keep classified stuff from Trump

---

The current gen of aircraft in the US military is genuinely regarded as 3 generations behind. So yah, they have a lot you dont know about.

I mean, that's where I got my stealth camouflage.

the prelude to the internet was made by DARPA back in the 70s and the public didn't see it til the 90s.

It isn't like the government is hiding like giant robots, but there are technologies deemed dangerous to the public that is hidden away.

no u?

there are rumors that our space program is actually basically Star Trek. the one we see is just the public front. it's all pretend. according to the rumors, we have people going to other planets and shit. one guy once called in to Coast to Coast AM saying he used to be involved with this program in the 70's and he once met a young Barack Obama on Mars

Yes. It's the main thing driving our ungodly defense budget.Look at the Stealth Bomber alone.It took years for the public to even see one.

Well just that program alone costed atleast $44 billion in 7 years.With each one being close to 3/4 of a billion each.I cant find the stories I want atm but during the mid 90s people were trying to find out what the hell was so big going on at Area-51 during that time(like always).The B-2 was being designed and R&D was going on for many years before the announcement.

That's just one project.

You know how Nintendo came out with the Switch and discontinued the 3DS?

Members of the government actually have the 4DS, the 3DS successor.

... ill be waiting on that citation

If by the government you mean the military, then definitely

Prove they don't
---

Either they've convinced everyone they do as a bluff or they actually do and some of it might be controversial in the public's eye so it is kept secret. What you don't know can't hurt you kind of thing

Wonder if they'll be forced to bring out the Virusinator 5000 to kill off the Corona Virus when it starts spreading in the USA.

You'd have to be dumb as shit to think they don't.

They have aliens at Area 51.

---

I'd say it's likely.

---

They have secrets, and they develop tech, so yeah; some of those secrets are almost certainly in the form of tech. But there are limits. They aren't out there developing lightsabers or mind-control rays or other superscience.

The SR-71 Blackbird was one example of secret tech that, of course, eventually got out.

---

Remember that stealth helicopter that crashed during the bin Laden raid?
That was the first time we learned about it.

Of who? The Russians? Do you realize the Chinese steal all their advanced tech?

Edit: it just hit me, maybe you just worded that poorly, and you mean the aircraft the public knows about is 3 gens. behind their most advanced stuff.

This has always been the case.

---

the laser systems alone is part of the technology thats kept away from the public and i believe that its part of the national defense already.

i thought the space force was a way for the us military to use its technology out in the open. space has no public detection of whats going on up there and is the best place to test new tech and its capabilities. whats scary is the tech thats yet to be revealed in the near future as the military will expand the role of the space force with air and space military dominance. the us has effectively created a global watch program on the planet. any place anywhere.

Conspiracy theories lol?

I doubt it. Trump would blab about it if we did.

Lots of secret weapons and secret space defense weapons.

But as far as "better" tech goes. The PS2 emotion engine tech was so advanced it made military missle systems look ancient.

Since then military started using entertainment industry tech to keep up.

Though what they do with that tech is kept secret.

Of course they do

I mean, they kept the heart attack gun under wraps for a long time. We still don't know how it works, though, that's still a secret.

It's a poison dart gun.

What Im saying is we all see the F-22 as the most cutting edge fighter plane right now, at least in a lot of peoples eyes (lol at the f-35) that F-22 is already 3 generations behind due to the production, development, etc of said plane. So yah, out there in Nevada is something 3 generations ahead of the F-22 and I totally believe that.

And to clarify, Im not saying its 3 generations behind another nation, Im just saying there is technology more advanced then what theyre using now.

Most of the secret tech is probably above the government. What people would cal shadow government i guess
