Thanks but it's not like I'm discovering the area 51 or saying all is BS. I have known and read about it when I was discovering aeronautics when I was 9 or something .
Not claiming nothing ever happened there, lots obviously did at times and its more than a popular and researched topic now. But today the world has changed. In the 50s it made sense to basically throw a gigantic airport for new gen machines, in the desert, and build hangars everywhere. It has hosted a few other things but mostly has been designed for air and space programs.
Now any single machine would be photo-shot in an hour by any Russian European or Chinese satellite.
There are better places - now - to hide the best secrets than the most spied and populated unsecret-secret area in the world (since the 90s). there are lots of things going on there... But it's too dangerous now to develop something really, really, next gen there without leaking. Even the F22 (awesome plane in itself but a failure so far looking at the big picture) hasn't kept secrecy for long for the media, so imagine how fast the Russians or Europeans have known about it (you can't keep secret a project followed by 7 airplane makers competitors). Sure the details are probably safe for a few years (who said the Chinese ?), but in the unlikely event some Roswell puppet is kept into a room, I'd be betting it's not in there.
If now you wanna work on something hitech, chemical, or whatever, you better be doing in a tiny facility somewhere unpredictable, not somewhere where there is a bus in the morning to get workers to (I'm exaggerating but you see my point).
Daily testing weaponry yes. Hiding the biggest secrets on earth, no, bin laden did better in his mountains for a few years
