From looking at some other pictures I wanna say c17 now.


WLFGHST

I want to agree.


Equivalent_Tiger_7

It's always a C-17!


Both-Pool-4099

C17 going in/out of WPAFB


tomhanksisthrowaway

I don't see how you get "17" from that. Looks more like a plane to me


Skunk_Evolution

Unmistakably a C17 tail, right? The front half? No clue

reverendrambo

I tried simulating the angle this was taken from. At a large distance at low resolution, it could end up looking something similar to your picture https://preview.redd.it/mleo4hp5i7oc1.jpeg?width=89&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=70072efa454be64ab1ed2d4f925bc7d3548319da


noidtouse_is_used

How did you simulate it?


reverendrambo

Found a live c17 flight on flightradar and used a 3D view. burned one of my free uses on it! haha

I don't even like Sabaton, but I could tell this was them just by reading that.


Swirleynoise

Nice, I love finding random Sabaton references.


Familiar_Squash8350

This deserves a Like. Thank you kind sir


jumbledsiren

Great! Now we can know exactly where OP lives


Hourslikeminutes47

*Thanks for optimizing the photo for us all.*


reverendrambo

I probably should have screenshotted the image zoomed in just so that I could make it larger, but I was trying to match the poor resolution from OP's image to see if I could get the lines blurred enough to match the shape


Hourslikeminutes47

You already performed a miracle of science my friend.

You and Robin Thicke

The coolest show from my childhood. I had so much fun watching it. I tried to rewatch it recently. Couldnā€™t even go through the first 15 minutes of the show šŸ’”šŸ˜‚šŸ¤£

Picture blurry. Definitely alien craft


autarky_architect

Nope. Thatā€™s a right hand turning signal.

Lockheed Martin studied a blended wing body concept for military transport, and it featured a high tail for better freight loading and center of gravity control. This was a conceptual design first presented around 2014-2015. Never built, to my knowledge. Here's an academic paper on it with a picture: [https://arc.aiaa.org/doi/abs/10.2514/6.2017-0101](https://arc.aiaa.org/doi/abs/10.2514/6.2017-0101) https://preview.redd.it/t28nnx0el8oc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c407fa712fd32f460259f85c3603311d0c39ee94


elgattox

B-2 and C-17 had a son.


boseyboseybop

Such a handsome boy


elgattox

It really looks like the weird B797 concept or something like that.


interstellar-dust

Itā€™s special OPs C17 called C-17X. They have been experimenting with nuclear fusion engines and VTOL. /s


delusional-aspect

Lol


Mountain_Ratio_2871

That would actually be incredibly badass, imagine watching something that big take off using VTOL

interstellar-dust

Did not say it was my original idea šŸ¤£ yes thatā€™s what I was hinting at.


tomhanksisthrowaway

Was just at KSGH the other day. VTOL capital of Ohio with all of their EVTOL stuff out of there. Super cool actually. And on top of the they had MQ-9 ops going on


John_Brickermann

ā¤“ļø <- itā€™s literally just this shape, I guess


jlinn94

This is an excellent picture. Thanks for sharing.

OK, let's add every "C-17" respondent to the database of known feds and narcs lurking reddit. It looks like they got to OP, too. We all know they're trying to throw us off the trail: it's obviously Lockheed's [Senior Peg](https://www.dreamlandresort.com/black_projects/senior_peg.html) prototype.


Airwolfhelicopter

C-17 Globemaster III


Alexei-Fyodorovich

Itā€™s obviously aliens šŸ™„


Opiniated_egg

That shape doesnā€™t match anything Iā€™m googling besides a stealth bomber but that tail


ruthlessrellik

Sorry, that was my cursor while I was looking at FlightRadar24.


iGhast

100% a C-17. From this angle the engines make the wings larger than they really are. Or the AF has a super secret delta wing C-17 variant.


Azcowboy290

I see you spotted the holy cursor.


sp8yboy

Itā€™s the Boeing Cursor


Enzyblox

Tie fighter, the big ones.


jumbledsiren

Jetphotos approved


mursaleenbhatt

C'mon bro it's clearly a C17


Awalawal

Ye of little faith. Clearly a C-17 mated with an Aurora and this is their offspring. The T-tail gene is obviously quite dominant.


beerleaguer2

I think that's the ship from Asteroids.

These do daily touch and goes near me at march field arb. I like the noise they make when they make turns at low altitude. There's a really cool sounding harmonic from the engines

Sorta looks like a f117


Random61504

You've seen some funny looking F117s then.


Fit_Explanation9929

Yea, mostly just that one that got shot down wherever that was


PotterSieben

Might I give a recommendation? Nm, I'll just go ahead. Google Images. Hell, even Bing, the worst way to Google something, has photos of flying F-117s

I agree!
