The interesting thing about McDonnell Douglas A-12 "Avenger II"
A-12 Avenger II (1)was a strange concept, and the thing is that this very advanced and remarkable aircraft was just delayed. Sometimes there was claiming that this aircraft was cancel because Lockheed-Martin had exclusivity for the UFO-technology. But that thing is a joke. The remarkable thing was that this plane was successful, but the Navy didn't need a Stealth attack plane.

The thing is that the A-12 Avenger is still living in the form of an X-47B drone (2), which is made by Northrop-Grumman. Another aircraft, which uses the same name "A-12" is "Oxcart" (3) the concept, which is better known as SR-71 "Blackbird". But as we see there are other theories, about the fate of one of the most incredible aircraft in the world. The legend lives, and the thing is that there was something, that people do not know.

Do you know that the Lockheed-Martin F-80 "Shooting Star" made its maiden flight in 1944? (4)That plane was an advanced and impressive thing. It looks really modern and very lethal. The history of that plane is quite interesting, and it came into service in early 1945.

The official reason why that plane has not involved the actions against Germany was that the plane was dangerous because one of them destroyed in the crash landing. But the real reason could be that the existence of the aircraft wanted to hide from Germans and Soviets.
Was the name "flying saucer" actually misunderstand? There was an admiral in the U.S Navy whose name was Sidney Souers (1892-1972)(5), and there is a possibility that somebody misunderstood or misspelled the name "Souers" as "Saucer". That could mean that the object, what dropped somewhere was not even the saucer shape. But was that thing weather balloon, alien aircraft, or some kind of test plane, like Gotha GO-229 (Or Horten Ho-229)(6) or Lockheed F-80 Shooting Star.
