Modern military tech is obviously extremely classified and you won't be able to find many pictures. Here's a little bit that is public knowledge though:

KH (Keyhole) Series – Reconnaissance (USA)
>KH-11 (“Crystal”/“Kennan”):
>Launched since the 1970s; still in use in upgraded forms.
>Rumored to resemble the Hubble Space Telescope, as both were built by Lockheed and have similar optical systems.
>Approximate size: ~15 meters long, with large aperture optical lenses.
>No official photos, but artistic renders and declassified diagrams show a long cylindrical body with solar panels.

Lacrosse / Onyx – Radar Imaging (USA)
>Uses synthetic aperture radar to see through clouds and darkness.
>Declassified photos show a boxy satellite with large radar panels.
>Likely ~15 tons with large side-facing antennas.

Mentor (Advanced Orion) – Signals Intelligence (USA)
>Enormous geostationary SIGINT satellites.
>Estimated to be the largest non-space station satellites ever built (~20,000 kg).
>Believed to have huge dish antennas for intercepting radio and satellite communications.

What's point of having advanced weapons if you keep them secret?
(Soviets were secretive like that before WW2 and it cost them. Hitler later said that if he had known about T-34s and KV-1s and LaGG-1s and MiG-3s he would never have attacked. This is why USSR/Russia since WW2 always displays its new weapons.)

A factor that people don't talk about much is brain drain from the defense/aviation industry and other engineering fields into software because it pays better and has perks like remote work.
There are very few top brains nowadays going into the fields that were big in the 1960s, aside from those who feel passionate enough about it to forego all the benefits other industries have.
Even top physicists and mathematicians nowadays move to shit like quant finance instead of doing research. A massive part of the brainpower that would have worked on advancing humanity is being spent instead on things that make a shit load of money by exploiting the system and appealing to the most reptilian part of the brain.

Yet, what we see is (((them))) losing control here and there and becoming ever more... deranged.
They do not have UFOs.

Strapping a pair of rockets to a cockpit is easy but flying the thing to outer space and back without killing the pilot is hard

The Nighthawk's mission was to get in quietly unseen on strategic targets such as factories and infrastructure, and quietly leave.
The Blackbird's mission was to get in and out as fast as fucking possible to procure and secure intel.
If you wanna make a Blackbirb drop a turd on a factory, its primary mission is compromised by the drag and heat problems a bomb bay will cause.
Vice versa a Nighthawk that goes mach 3 makes one cancer loud racket and will be as stealthy as a KKK member in Klan uniform in the Bronx.

Yeah, aliens totally flew millions of miles to crash because of radar in an area of New Mexico where they just happened to have the only nuclear capable base (Roswell Army Air Field) and also developing the world's first nuclear weapons (LANL and Sandia). But sure, it's just retarded aliens.

>There were a lot of things we couldn't do in an SR-71, but we were the fastest guys on the block and loved reminding our fellow aviators of this fact. People often asked us if, because of this fact, it was fun to fly the jet. Fun would not be the first word I would use to describe flying this plane. Intense, maybe. Even cerebral. But there was one day in our Sled experience when we would have to say that it was pure fun to be the fastest guys out there, at least for a moment.
>It occurred when Walt and I were flying our final training sortie. We needed 100 hours in the jet to complete our training and attain Mission Ready status. Somewhere over Colorado we had passed the century mark. We had made the turn in Arizona and the jet was performing flawlessly. My gauges were wired in the front seat and we were starting to feel pretty good about ourselves, not only because we would soon be flying real missions but because we had gained a great deal of confidence in the plane in the past ten months. Ripping across the barren deserts 80,000 feet below us, I could already see the coast of California from the Arizona border. I was, finally, after many humbling months of simulators and study, ahead of the jet. I was beginning to feel a bit sorry for Walter in the back seat. There he was, with no really good view of the incredible sights before us, tasked with monitoring four different radios. This was good practice for him for when we began flying real missions, when a priority transmission from headquarters could be vital. It had been difficult, too, for me to relinquish control of the radios, as during my entire flying career I had controlled my own transmissions.

> But it was part of the division of duties in this plane and I had adjusted to it. I still insisted on talking on the radio while we were on the ground, however. Walt was so good at many things, but he couldn't match my expertise at sounding smooth on the radios, a skill that had been honed sharply with years in fighter squadrons where the slightest radio miscue was grounds for beheading. He understood that and allowed me that luxury.
>Just to get a sense of what Walt had to contend with, I pulled the radio toggle switches and monitored the frequencies along with him. The predominant radio chatter was from Los Angeles Center, far below us, controlling daily traffic in their sector. While they had us on their scope (albeit briefly), we were in uncontrolled airspace and normally would not talk to them unless we needed to descend into their airspace. We listened as the shaky voice of a lone Cessna pilot asked Center for a readout of his ground speed. Center replied: "November Charlie 175, I'm showing you at ninety knots on the ground."

>Now the thing to understand about Center controllers, was that whether they were talking to a rookie pilot in a Cessna, or to Air Force One, they always spoke in the exact same, calm, deep, professional, tone that made one feel important. I referred to it as the " Houston Center voice." I have always felt that after years of seeing documentaries on this country's space program and listening to the calm and distinct voice of the Houston controllers, that all other controllers since then wanted to sound like that, and that they basically did. And it didn't matter what sector of the country we would be flying in, it always seemed like the same guy was talking. Over the years that tone of voice had become somewhat of a comforting sound to pilots everywhere. Conversely, over the years, pilots always wanted to ensure that, when transmitting, they sounded like Chuck Yeager, or at least like John Wayne. Better to die than sound bad on the radios.
>Just moments after the Cessna's inquiry, a Twin Beech piped up on frequency, in a rather superior tone, asking for his ground speed. "I have you at one hundred and twenty-five knots of ground speed." Boy, I thought, the Beechcraft really must think he is dazzling his Cessna brethren. Then out of the blue, a navy F-18 pilot out of NAS Lemoore came up on frequency. You knew right away it was a Navy jock because he sounded very cool on the radios. "Center, Dusty 52 ground speed check". Before Center could reply, I'm thinking to myself, hey, Dusty 52 has a ground speed indicator in that million-dollar cockpit, so why is he asking Center for a readout? Then I got it, ol' Dusty here is making sure that every bug smasher from Mount Whitney to the Mojave knows what true speed is

> He's the fastest dude in the valley today, and he just wants everyone to know how much fun he is having in his new Hornet. And the reply, always with that same, calm, voice, with more distinct alliteration than emotion: "Dusty 52, Center, we have you at 620 on the ground."
>And I thought to myself, is this a ripe situation, or what? As my hand instinctively reached for the mic button, I had to remind myself that Walt was in control of the radios. Still, I thought, it must be done - in mere seconds we'll be out of the sector and the opportunity will be lost. That Hornet must die, and die now. I thought about all of our Sim training and how important it was that we developed well as a crew and knew that to jump in on the radios now would destroy the integrity of all that we had worked toward becoming. I was torn.
>Somewhere, 13 miles above Arizona, there was a pilot screaming inside his space helmet. Then, I heard it. The click of the mic button from the back seat. That was the very moment that I knew Walter and I had become a crew. Very professionally, and with no emotion, Walter spoke: "Los Angeles Center, Aspen 20, can you give us a ground speed check?" There was no hesitation, and the replay came as if was an everyday request. "Aspen 20, I show you at one thousand eight hundred and forty-two knots, across the ground."

Said the same idiots who thought parabolic mics wouldn't be able to listen to their conversations outdoors and away from possible bugs.

>I think it was the forty-two knots that I liked the best, so accurate and proud was Center to deliver that information without hesitation, and you just knew he was smiling. But the precise point at which I knew that Walt and I were going to be really good friends for a long time was when he keyed the mic once again to say, in his most fighter-pilot-like voice: "Ah, Center, much thanks, we're showing closer to nineteen hundred on the money."
>For a moment Walter was a god. And we finally heard a little crack in the armor of the Houston Center voice, when L.A.came back with, "Roger that Aspen, Your equipment is probably more accurate than ours. You boys have a good one." It all had lasted for just moments, but in that short, memorable sprint across the southwest, the Navy had been flamed, all mortal airplanes on freq were forced to bow before the King of Speed, and more importantly, Walter and I had crossed the threshold of being a crew. A fine day's work. We never heard another transmission on that frequency all the way to the coast. For just one day, it truly was fun being the fastest guys out there.

I like that picture because its clear the guys who had the idea to take it were planning for a picture that was less "check out our military might" and was more like "check out our cool engineering toy collection." They even included the little pushback tug :)
