...whenever they show ya a pic of Blackbird II it means they have started production on Blackbird III. A whole bunch of "ufo" sightings are things like that.

Not really, but if it was built by Lockheed then there's a very good chance that they used our software to design and manufacture it, but since this is a 'black project' we would have never heard much about it until it was leaked to the press. And since the story is accreted to 'Aviation Week' ( which we affectionately referred to as 'Aviation Leak' when I worked for McDonnell Douglas) you can be pretty sure of two things; the story is probably true and in about 6 months Lockheed will officially admit it as that was the usual lead time for 'leaks' in that publication. One of their favorite tricks was to put a picture on the cover of an issue with no title or comment and yet there wouldn't be single word anywhere in the magazine relating to it, but then about 6 months later they would then run the full story after the 'official' announcements were made. Sometimes the cover images were never seen in the flesh but that was rare and I suspect it was done just often enough so as to keep people guessing and/or on their toes.
