One of the Pentagon's most secret and mysterious military installations is Tonopah Test Range, located in Nevada. While all the attention of the world ufological community was riveted to the world famous Area 51, the evil American military was doing their dark deeds there, that is, at the Tonopah test site.
So, first of all, the Americans tested all Soviet aviation innovations there: Mig-15, Mig-17, Mig-21, Mig-23 and so on, obtained in different ways immediately after leaving the assembly line:
Along the way, in secret from the Soviet leadership, secret Soviet air defense systems were brought there, photographs of which the Communist Party forbade to publish even in military magazines for comrade officers. And there, too, all this was sorted out and tested, after which the complexes became useless, but were still put into service.
Further, as the base expanded (now there are more than fifty hangars), the Americans settled the Lockheed F-117A Nighthawk there, where they were first tested, and then (15 years ago) moved again for refitting.
The next secret project of the test site was the Lockheed Martin RQ-170 Sentinel UAV, sample from somewhere in 2005-2007:
Along the way, some other secret projects, which few people know about, were tested and continue to be tested. However, it is possible that there was an accidental or not very accidental leak about these projects.

To begin with, to make it clearer what we are talking about, we present satellite images of the base with a sequential increase:
As you can see from the pictures, only large laboratory aircraft that accompany test objects, parked cars and a mass of hangars, divided into clusters, are in sight. On the ground, it looks something like this:
Tonopah Test Range is a training ground with the highest level of secrecy, so all local civil aviation flights diligently go around it, making a big detour, nevertheless, the satellite flies where it wants and the whole problem is there only as optics.
The photo shows a fresh image of the test site made by the PlanetScope satellite, which was drawn to the attention of the famous American military analytical resource thedrive.com. Of course, some UFOs are not visible in close-up on the picture, but this is what can be traced there:
From this picture it follows that a whole cluster of 12 hangars (which means the same technique) is open and some of them have partially advanced some planes. The planes themselves are not visible, but the shadows are clearly visible when magnified. And on this basis, thedrive.com asks the question: what is it?
The first thing to think about and what thedrive.com immediately thought about was the F-117 or perhaps the RQ-170 Sentinel, since both are now at base. But neither the one nor the other does not pass either according to the official number (there are much less of these types of equipment there than 12 pieces), nor in size: these things that left the hangars are much larger than the F-117 and are not very similar in contours to the RQ -170 Sentinel.
The devices do not look like anything at all, since they seem to be absent from the official arsenal of the Pentagon. And this is not defined as pepelats for testing, since 3-4 of them are made for testing, but not 12 pieces.
The authors of thedrive.com material are at a loss, do not know what to say. They do not know how to interpret photos and people in different forums where these pictures are discussed, but quite often it is believed that this is either some new Pentagon UAV, or in general TR-3B.
What is this we also cannot say, the resolution is weak, but what one cannot but pay attention to is the fact that the devices were EXACTLY put on public display. Moreover, obviously not for PlanetScope, but for photographing with such satellites that can see rivets from orbit. For example, military satellites of Russia or China, to which the Americans really wanted to show something.
And what is interesting: it somehow coincided that the defile is taking place against the background of Covid-19, which, as Chinese patriots write in their newspapers, was thrown into China by the Americans. And also against the backdrop of a sharp aggravation in Idlib, where Russia may want to launch a nuclear strike against Turkey, which is, as it were, a member of NATO.
Based on this, we believe that there was some kind of sign and the Americans deliberately showed that they have something up their sleeve and in serial quantities. But what is there and whether the message has reached - here we do not know, so for now we are following the development of events: maybe these pepelats will fly somewhere.
