though some combat things might be available ten years from now."
Defense contractors began to line up, as well as universities who get
grants from the U.S. Department of Defense.
After he came across Report 13, LaViolette put his knowledge of
physics to work and began to piece together a picture of what may have
happened in the past thirty years. It includes "black" projects—work
which the military decides should be so secretive that even Congress does
not get reports about its funding.
A breakthrough in LaViolette's quest for the pieces of the picture came
when a few establishment scientists gave out tidbits of formerly-secret
information about a "black funding" project—the Stealth B-2 bomber.
(The B-2A is described as the world's most expensive aircraft at $1.2 billion.)
Their description of the B-2 gave LaViolette and others a number of
clues about the bomber—softening of the sonic boom as Brown had
talked about in the 1950s, a dielectric flying wing, a charged leading-edge,
ions dumped into the exhaust stream and other clues. The B-2 seems to be
a culmination of many of Brown's observations made more than forty
years ago.
Townsend Brown fought an uphill battle all his adult life, at great cost
to himself and to family life. His cause included getting the science of
advanced propulsion out into public domain, not hidden behind the
Secrecy Act and a wall of classified documents. He died feeling that he
had lost the battle.
