You gotta get inside the head of the enemy. To chase down the UFOs, we must first learn to become the UFOs!

Yeah, they showed a UFO-shaped military aircraft once on AHC. It was designed in the 50s and it was hovering and UFO-shaped. I think they already have stuff that they are still experimenting on in the hopes it becomes economically feasible someday. People aren't happy with a 2 billion dollar plane, imagine a plane that cost 20 billion dollars? That wouldn't sit with people.

But oddly enough a 10 billion dollar aircraft carrier is fine.

The aircraft carrier is a mobile oil defense platform, it pays for itself, it doesn’t pay for the labor and cost of maintenance, but it does pay for itself

Are you talking about the sketchy experimental hovercraft, that they were playing around with?

We have publicly available hovercrafts. We've had them for a long time. They're just platforms/vehicles built around giant fans that face downwards.
