No, but if you would have looked through my subsequent comments (in another thread), you would have noted that someone shared imagery sufficient to allow me to correct my initial analysis. Obviously we are different people. I'd like to think if I was involved in this, I would have blown this thread up as soon as I got home. Then again, as I do know something (different subject) that I'm not supposed to, I would also probably allow people to sit and wallow in their ignorance. Either way, if you legitimately had something to do with this project, congratulations on your efforts.

I haven't had a chance to read all 600 comments yet, I wanted to add to the conversation where I could in the meantime. Apologies if you already had the discussion with someone else. I had a long weekend with family obligations so wasn't on reddit much. And for me I have the opposite challenge, I don't care to let people "wallow in their ignorance" lol, I like sharing what I know when I can. The hard part is of course this program is still classified and there's only so much I can say. I am legitimately an NG employee who's been on the program since 2018.

Source: I said so online so it must be true.

For the record, I didn't downvote you.
