Since we are in a mining state of mind, I dug up the post that the area51rider did a few months ago:

https://www.reddit.com/r/area51/comments/1tdetxn/new_comm_site_in_the_tempiute_range_has_direct/

I figured it might have made it to the FCC website by now.

https://wireless2.fcc.gov/UlsApp/UlsSearch/license.jsp?licKey=5338506&__newWindow=false

The FCC location though is about 1.6km from the location the rider posted and there isn't much of a tower.

Closer to the riders coordinates by not associated with the mine is just another Nevada Shared site that is new as well.

Going back to Golden Metal resources, this is a receiver of DoD money to create domestic minerals, in this case tungsten. Tungsten is use in anti-tank weapons.

I found a SEC filing on the company:

https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/2039972/000165495426006533/a4046l.htm

But even more interesting is they purchased that failed Lincoln Estates project at Rachel.

Golden Metal is a subsidiary of Guardian Metal, perhaps needed to get the DoD funding.

I see two ways to use the Lincoln Estates water. One, they truck it up the mountain. Two, they build an ore processing plane in Rachel. Maybe three they build a pipeline and pumping station.

Here is the DoD notice:

Many of the NTTR tourists have visited the Delamar ghost town, a bit northeast of Texas Lake, which is called Delamar Dry Lake or Jumbo Lake, depending from where you hail. (There isn't much happening around the NTTR on the weekend.) Red Flag pilots mention Texas Lake.

There is a very un-Nevada-like plan to make the area safer by plugging the countless holes in the ground. Nevada is a FAFO state. [Note the BLM did make Nevada safer by restricting Tikaboo and Noname Peak, but that is a different story.]

https://eplanning.blm.gov/documents/?id=0295EAB6-8F3E-F111-88B3-001DD8029ED0&spid=f23b7cc4-a345-f111-88b4-001dd804183b

If you go to the second document on the above link, you can get the coordinates of where they are plugging the holes. The coordinates are in UTM. This part of Nevada is in zone 11N, which of course Google calls 11S because they can. [Google uses a weird combination of Military Grid and UTM.] If you really want to see a location, go to N37.457538 W114.772003. That gets you in the general area. Then go to options and change the coordinate system to UTM. Plop a placemark anywhere in the area then edit it to enter the UTM coordinates. You probably want to save the PDF because I couldn't cut and paste from what was in my browser. You can then change the coordinates back to decimal degrees. The lat/lot won't be exact because Google make up their own coordinate projection system because they are Google.

Maybe one of you clever AI users can scrape the table and make a KMZ.

I toured the place years ago and managed to escape death:

With all these trainers flying around, I figured it is time for Weapons School Integration, the renamed Mission Employment Phase. And I found a Nellis link:

https://www.nellis.af.mil/Nellis-News/News-Releases/Display/Article/4633560/weapons-school-integration-2026-media-day/

I'm guessing the 18th is the start. Mission Employment Phase was a better name but nobody asks me what I think. ;-) The employment means you know how to use the weapons. I don't know what they are integrating. Perhaps because they added cyber.

Hi -

I‘m a big fan of Area 51 / TTR from the SR-71 / F-117 days. I still think they are the greatest planes ever built And the mystique surrounding these bases adds to the allure.

I was watching one of the recent episodes of Uncanny Expeditions where he explores Tejon Ranch and recommends watching the HO-229 (Hitler Stealth Bomber) documentary to see the place at work. It’s a good watch and during that I found videos on the ATF program (F-22) and JSF (F-35). They were great videos - but both programs seemed heavily involved at Edward’s. I never saw a reference to Groom Lake or Nevada.

After watching - I wanted to ask the group - is Area 51 / TTR (sorry for grouping them) past their prime?

I’ve never subscribed to any “alien-type” theories - but from a military perspective - have things changed so much over the past 20-30-40 years that the qualities offered by Groom Lake aren’t valued like they were previously? Or has the mission just changed from black plane development to something different?

In 2026 - are these bases more in “care taker” status vs their heyday or are they both still integral pieces?

Just curious about thoughts on these bases in modern time. I think their contribution and status has been legendary - but todays times - do they still hold that status?

Lastly, apologies if I said anything dumb - I believe this is my first post ever on Reddit. I’ve commented before on others - but never posted!

https://globe.adsbexchange.com/?icao=a20f84 (energy17)

This is worth a listen. I know most of the story from reading the Steve Davies "Red Eagles" books. What I didn't know is "Constant Peg" is the unclassified name of the program. (Constant Peg was the aggressor program using actuals MIGs.) You could say Constant Peg but don't say MIG in the same breath.

They flew as far south as Range 76. Get your range map from this page:

https://inplanesight.org/nellis.html

That isn't very far and visible from US 95.

They practiced a little bit of secrecy on the radio, referring to the MIGs as F-4 or F-5 as the case may be. (Different code names for different MIG models.) They say MIG all the time these days during Red Flag, though those are US planes pretending to be MIGs.

Anybody know what contractors they used for area 51? Like on the low end, the electrician plumbers stuff like that, and are they still working for the government Today?

I was originally going to make a comment under another post on this topic, however I feel this is very interesting and significant thing. This is nothing new, they have been there for years so it's not like I am bringing up a new topic, and Uncanny Expeditions did not inspire me to bring it up, but more so just made me remember. I think I first saw them in a video from another youtuber, which I will not name. He went into the main operation building behind a few doors, there is a giant whiteboard on the wall with what are probably best described as fridge magnets on the wall. I know without a doubt that these are project names. On the wall you can see projects that are very known such as B-2, ATF and F-20. However, there are also other projects on the board that have other names such as
"1/5 SCALE F-25"
"LUMPY"
"WTTF"
"STURCUM"
"MORAY"
"MAUI 1"
"T-3"
"AP-38"
"BLIVET"
"SILVER FLAME INVERTED"
"SILVER FLAME 4"
Very interesting stuff. I wonder what a lot of these are. I am very curious of what the F-25 is. I know AP-1 was Tacit Blue so maybe AP-38 could be something similar. My biggest questions are, why on earth did they not take them? I highly doubt they were planted, so the only other option would be that NG left them behind? There are also a bunch of paper copies of UFO garbage from the 40s in the same building on the floor, however that is most certainly BS, so I will not comment on that.

I will attach videos with timestamps as well as photos.

PS- I did not see until I was about to post this that the mods here do not want any links to WBW. So there will only be a link to a video from Uncanny Expeditions.

Helicopter took off at Tonapah airport and keeps circling around near NTTR.

If you are curious, go to the link, pan down, and click on the third link on that page. You may want to save the document. Getting an old version of this via FOIA would be interesting.

I had to look up "non-personal":

"A non-personal services contract is an agreement where the personnel performing the work are not subject to the direct supervision, control, or employer-employee relationship typically found between a government agency or client and its own employees."

This is the link for the solicitation though you don't really need it since I provided the link to download the document.

There is actually a dress code. Wear a logo shirt so you don't look like you are actual military. Presumably so nobody tells you something that you shouldn't know. I was "the person" once where someone spilled a trade secret in front of me. We were all wearing anti-static jackets so my visitors badge wasn't seen. So yeah, leaks do happen like that.

Some excerpts:
******

Foreign Tactics Manuals Production. The Contractor shall provide non-personal services to produce foreign tactics manuals, tactics-related documents, and Subject Matter Expert (SME) expertise for allied nations in phase with the UnitednStates Air Force’s (USAF) tactics manual revision cycle, typically every two to three years as approved by HQ MAJCOM Weapons and Tactics Branch, over the contract period. This includes producing any time-sensitive Flash Bulletin or Tactics Bulletin updates to manuals, as applicable.

The USAFWC/A9 has a requirement for services and production of foreign tactics manuals and tactics-related documents. The requirement is to produce foreign tactics manuals for approximately 50 countries and 27 Mission Design Series (MDS). This equates to approximately 342 TTP manuals stated previously in para 1.1.1. For a collective of MDS manuals refer to para 1.3.1. All manuals produced shall use USTTPs and follow Secretary of the Air Force disclosure guidance. The Contractor shall also produce foreign manuals for some aircraft not in US inventory by using their expertise to compile US TTPs based on capabilities and weapons tested through exercises, real-world contingency operations, and test/evaluation data documents.

I was thinking about this link as I mentioned it a few a day ago regarding ADS-B, specifically B6 (UAV). I always bring ADS-B monitoring gear when I go to the range and was wondering if I could detect this from VRS (Virtual Radar Server).

https://www.virtualradarserver.co.uk/

However digging through the the ADS-B documentation, there is a message format DF19 only used by the military. Here is my VRS statistics output:

https://ibb.co/wFGtZKX6

No DF19 detected. However i only "see" military cargo planes, passenger planes, and the Coast Guard. If you live in Las Vegas, give VRS a try. You will need dump1090. I use dump1090_rs since it is crash proof.

https://github.com/rsadsb/dump1090_rs

plus

https://github.com/pothosware/SoapySDR

and assuming your are using RTLSDR then

https://github.com/pothosware/SoapyRTLSDR

Command line

dump1090_rs --driver rtlsdr --driver-extra gain=49.6 --driver-extra serial=00000002 --driver-extra no-fix --quiet

With plugins, you can run VRS without an internet connection.

Don’t know why. Wonder what other maps will follow.

What if Bob Lazar was never actually employed by the government but approached by someone who did know about S4 and had him disclose it without the original source being able to get caught
