Thoughts on this USAF patch?

Here's another version of the same patch... in a different color scheme.

Now I'm more convinced the canards are another craft. That being said they could just be having fun with us. But as we saw with the bird of prey you never know.

well that one seems to be much more interesting
especially the UAV below the F22

Why especially UAV?

We have alot of UAV/UCAV's that went black and there appears to be almost a decade of ????????? While many here are not fans of Rogoway, he has an interesting article on this

I've seen a UAV flying around that had almost that exact same shape. There was a prop in the middle back right in the center of the 2 wings. It was painted all white and flying very low.

I think that's probably the tailplanes of whatever is below the F-22.

The "canards" are definitely something else, imo.

Because its basically looks like an advanced Avenger? Could be the onimous UCAV.

What could represent the two little red light on tip wing of the last triangle shape wing Under the big craft? And the big craft what type it could be ?

Oooh, I see what you're saying now. I thought it looked vaguely like some of the AJAX/AMC-X designs, but it is a bit Avenger'ish.

The "UAV" looks like a hybrid of an RQ-3 and Silent Night...

Then there is this- gives a much different perspective... link to pic of coin with more detail. Not sure how to upload directly to here.

Thanks! :-)

Almost makes you think they were capable of putting an F22 Raptor into space. Launching it piggy back from another larger plane. Reminiscent of the SR71 with the D21 drone.

I wonder if the aircraft under the F-22 is something more similar to the FB-22 than the A-12 II and the F-22 is there to denote that. Without seeing the rear, because that seems to be hidden intentionally, it could also look similar to the patented design that Boeing presented for an ferry aircraft that deploys a sub-orbital platform. Definitely a teaser if I've ever seen one. Reminds me of an opsgroup hospital patch that featured an unknown Concordesque aircraft on it.

On second thought, I take that back:



This patch is slightly different than the coin. The aircraft underneath the F-22 has a tail that extends behind the F-22 (color scheme), and the color scheme of everything under the 2nd aircraft is relative to the aircraft underneath that (so it's something relatively big). The 4th object is it's own platform (denoted by the color scheme).

What about the large aircraft? Its windows dont match anything at first glance.

oh and Masisoar, check your messages onces in a while

What opsgroup hospital patch are you talking about? Could you link it?

Just a guess- but the big bird is most likely a stealthy refueler.
