3. On June 24, 1986 BOEING’s President extended formally written invitation to import-contract the state-protected JES-STEALTH PROTOTYPES defined by [4]. The contract was signed on August 25, 1986 in Kansas, at Boeing’s Military Facilities. A Classified. 7-Page Import-Contract was immediately shared with The United States Government and Boeing’s Third parties, Lockheed, Pratt and Whitney, ETC. FOR immediate adaptation of the so imported JES-STEALTH design trade secrets [4, 5] and flight testing these trade secrets and computer programs, thus allowing Boeing and its Third Parties to win the $67 billion ATF program, later known as the F-22 Raptor program.Search in Google Scholar

The top-secret, 2-PWA-Jet-Engines, Max-Range 4,600 km, Zero-Crew, U.S. newest and most advanced Stealth B-21-Bomber of the U.S., by Northrop Grumman and PWA with Wichita-based Spirit AeroSystems and 5 additional subcontractors, is under the “Defense Authorization Act for 2017”, U.S. Senate Arm. Serv. Com.; GAO, October 25, 2016: JES-STEALTH X-44 (Figure 5) influences the new design. (GAO and GlobalSecuity). Commonality with PWA Jet-Engine F-135 of the F-35 is to power 100 to 145 B-21 units for $80 billion currently projected program cost. Earlier, the designs of both Boeing and Lockheed Martin had lost the competition for the B-21. GAO-16-389R, March 24, 2016, etc. the RQ-180 program influences the B-21 design, as well as of (i) the Advanced Air-Launched Cruise Missile, (ii) Strike missiles.

Af.mil. 2016-02-26; GAO-15-374: UCLASS program changes its 2017 budget from high-profile strike-attack to low profile Carrier Based Aerial Refueling System (CBARS); Navy to invest $2.68 billion in this program. Air-defense DOD debate on UCLASS high-profile, original mission vs. new, low-profile which has delayed UCLASS development by 3 years, from 2014 to 2017; US Secretary of Defense at that time, Robert Gates, stated the need for pilotless next-generation bomber option; “US Navy funds additional X-47B development”. Flightglobal.com. 27 June 2014; GAO, in August 2005: DOD awarded GE & Rolls-Royce $2.4 billion contract to develop the F136 engine as alternative for the F-35/PWA Engine F136. LM Conceptual designs of a new JES STVS FB-22 Bomber includes adaptation of GE F136 or PWA F135 jet engines. GAO, in July 2005, Boeing was paid $767 million for its tail-less/canard-less, stealth X-45C Program on top of $175 million in October 2004. It lost two competitions vs. the NG X-47B Program and the new NG B-21 program.Search in Google Scholar
