Well my hypothesis is that black triangles are a unidentified form of Aircraft so 2 and 3 fit that hypothesis. Though whether the rest of the project fits the hypothesis depends on the field work I plan to do over the next few years.
I am sorry...but you didn't state your hypothesis ANYWHERE in your thread...or did I miss it completely?
Don't hypotheses follow an "If.....Then..." statement?

OP...this is your thread...lead by example and you post something YOU researched on here rather than just jabbering away causing the topic to get off track.
Declassified research (subject to a Freedom of Information request) from the UK Ministry of Defence report UAP in the UK Air Defence Region, code named Project Condign and released to the public in 2006, draws several conclusions as to the origin of "black triangle" UFO sightings.

The second one is an RC model from a video that made the rounds a few years ago. I don't have the video handy, but it flies back and forth pretty fast, and it's obviously a pretty small scale "aircraft".

The fourth one almost looks like a D-21, but it's hard to get an idea of the scale.

There was talk of using them to test some new technology in the 80s/90s, but it was officially abandoned. It could be a scale model of one taken up close to make it look bigger than it really is.

I wouldn't be surprised. A blimp is perfect for a persistent ISR, or missile radar system, because it can stay up for so long without requiring change out for maintenance, or the other issues that normal UAVs have.

Intresting.
With a airship a modular approach would be quite feasible.
Plus even if the idea of a orbital airship is not possible it would make some sense to go into the stratosphere and then launch a coventional payload into space.
