Secret military aircraft possibly exposed on TikTok
An OPSEC violation has once again made a case for why using TikTok should be a punishable offense in the military, this time after someone revealed some US stealth technology testing going on and posted it to the Chinese government-affiliated platform.

Maybe the Russians could hack TickTock out of existence and we would all be better off
It's a mocked up component, not a whole craft for radar testing. This is like comparing a shadow puppet of a torso to the next master Jedi full reveal in Star Wars movies.
Looks like swamp gas to me!
"An OPSEC violation has once again made a case for why using TikTok should be a punishable offense in the military"
OPSEC has a specific meaning of safeguarding current or upcoming military operations. Too often people use it as a catch-all phrase when talking about securing anything. By definition it only pertains to unclassified information, as national security information is a whole different beast.
We don't know that this is a "secret military aircraft." Like others have posted, the fact that someone took a picture and posted it is more reason to believe it's not. And that person is most likely not military anyway, since this was at a Lockheed testing facility and not a military installation.
This article sounds like it was written by one of these brand-new, super gung-ho Airmen to whom I have to explain that not everything is a state secret. And that whole "using TikTok should be a punishable offense" line... Get real.

ADXbear has a great fix ~ Palmdale/Edwards should heed the advice. No excuses!
It’s a canopy for a new pavilion! Nothing to see here… move along now! Lol
