On a related note, History Channel's documentary on Skunk Works called 'Secrets in the Sky: The Untold Story of Skunk Works' from 2019 is an absolute must-watch. The history of the SR-71 and the F-117A and other projects Skunk Works does is fricking awesome. The deployment of the F-117A in the Gulf War was an insane story, especially since they had started secretly developing that aircraft in the late 70's. Right from the show - Skunk Works regularly works on tech that the public won't see for another 30 years.
