They include the Stealth fighter/bomber, the high- altitude U-2 and its succesor the A-12; unmanned reconnaissance drones; the Soviet MiG; ultralight spy aircraft; and the Aurora space plane, which over the years has been entwined with "UFO sightings." Information comes from post- Cold War Freedom of Information Act requests and from interviews with the people who designed and tested the aircraft.
