Check out this web site for classified military spending!!!!!

Check out the link below, and type in "classified" in the search box. It details classified spening for the past 4 years. $138 billion spent on classified projects in 2004 alone!!! Type in "F-1" and a list of aircraft projects and costs are shown, type in "F-117" or "B-2" and stealth costs are detailed.

If you read the boxes it shows number of units purchased i.e number of airframes etc as an example if shows 6 F-35's purchased.

Click here

Unfortunately when you clickon the value of the classified projects you can't go any further!!

Some strange spending is shown under aircraft such as the F-12 - what is an F-12 and why would the airfroce be spending money on it?

Confirmation of the A-12 Avenger can be seen by typing in A-12.

3 contracts for ~30k each is probably a couple of initial design renderings/studies/models handed out to Grumman for a possible A-6 replacement.... Original Grumman Avenger was a great carrier based aircraft....

Did you check NG for press releases on the contract awards. Would also be in the Federal Register if not "black"....

This is an A-6:

Both of these are Navy planes (aircraft carrier planes).

Did anyone else spot the B-2A?

Wonder what changes are being made?
The details you get are interesting though, right down to the company or contractor themselves.

the comanche has 77/$892,053,745

thought they cancelled this?

I believe that the lesser amounts are for funding the actual employment of the planes - for instance, and I won't name plane names, to fund the fuel of those planes that are not in development.

Why the heck does lockheed get a $700 million "defense" contract for the space shuttle?

Also, there is a navy sub, a ssn with no number, but an aweful lot of money went to it. All subs have an ssn # even when under construction. The seawolf was ssn-21 the carter ssn-23 etc., the only designation is.......SUBMARINE NUCLEAR-SSN, then you can't go any further. I wonder what that one is? $7 BILLION over the 4 years listed alone!!!!!!!

I think it could be a new sub class in development, Electric Boat Corporation who builds all the subs got the contract and on there site it lists an advanced concept sub, here is a link:
www.gdeb.com...

the lockheed one has probably got sumthin to do with spy satellites and the sub one is probably some sort of spook sub as well........kinda like the dsrv thing was a funnel for other projects like the hallibut

what is AN/FSD JOINT STARS? I punched in star and that came up.

Is a A/EA-3 SKYWARRIOR some type of UAV?

What is the Space Defense System???


SPACE DEF SYSTEM 64406F 0/$0 30/$67,254,615 5/$45,703,481 0/$0 0/$0

The Jointstars program is a survielance aircraft and is manned, it IS NOT a UAV. The aircraft is an E-8, a modified Boeing 707, and is being built to incorporate new advanced radar equipment.

wow man great site everyone should check out the FCS- it stands for Future Combat Systems- its basically the future of the miltiary (everything being electronically integrated) google FCS and see what you get.

The A-3 is an OLD Navy plane that hasn't been flown in years. It used to be called the Whale because it was so big. It last flew in 1991.

www.globalaircraft.org...

wonder if in it sumwhere they worked out how to stop an rpg round yet?

You've got to be kidding me! 13 billion dollars for kool-aid! come on!

Just kidding. But when you type in disc, you get this:

www.governmentcontractswon.com...

Hoop! just realised the link doesn't work you have to type disc in when you get there and of course I also just realised that disc probably stand for not discernable as in the first box before the numbers.

My bad, sorry.

Did you watch the video? it uses the technology which fires a round at an incoming RPG or round and about 3 meters from the vehicle, the round from the vehicle explodes which simulatenously detonates the incoming explosion.
