I don't know what country your in but obviously it's not the US. You need to become informed about who Lockheed is and their track record. Tell me please, what country are you in and be honest about it,do not hide.

Now, do your research about Lockheed and this time give us an intelligent response. A child could throw stones Clondike,that's easy.

Hi Randy,
I know who they are and I think he knows too. Maybe I'm wrong?
Think that the meaning of post was that patented technology means few if there aren't real devices developed. Of course, maybe there are!
Maybe just we haven't to know they exist...
Probably patent is just required to avoid that other subjects claim discovery of principles and start legal litigation for rights on future commercial/military applications.

They developed the XR-71 Blackbird and many other stuff. (NOT THE PI DETECTOR, BUT THE PLANE wonderful machine designed by Kelly Johnson & Co).

Best regards,
Max

Max,

I'm pleased that you do know about Lockheed and also good insight to how Aerospace works regarding the patent process.

I didn't mean to jump on Clondike so hard but having worked at the Missle Systems group of Hughes Aircraft for a number of years plus a couple smaller Aerospace houses, he hit a raw nerve (and to be honest I just woke up and haven't had my first cup of coffee yet so my apologies to Clondike).
I have always appreciated your posts Max as your one of the few Engineers like Carl who respond in a professional manner even to the silliest of ideas put forth on this forum.
If you ever come to Los Angeles we can meet for lunch or dinner and I'm buying!

Hi,

Thanks for the invitation... if I'll come there in the US, LA I'll be happy to meet you too.

Kind regards,
