Collateral victims so far: Lockheed D-21 drone; X-23A and X-24 lifting bodies; ISINGLASS / RHEINBERRY; MOL, KH-10 DORIAN.

Interesting theory. I'll see what I can dig up on ISINGLASS and see if it represented the Mach 6 KINGFISH design.

Major bonus points if he dug up anything more on the Northrop XST, Lockheed's ATB, or any of the post-ISINGLASS designs.

...conducted a study for a boost-glide vehicle, known as the Advanced Aerodynamic Reconnaissance System, that followed the cancellation of the ISINGLASS project. Additional documentation shows meetings with McDonnell Aircraft Co., concerning this new reconnaissance study. Money was sought for...

...looks like they have applied 1980's and 90's stealth techonologies (e.g. faceting and leading-edge-alignment) to the what may have been the ISINGLASS configuration (if as you say they were inspired by the ISINGLASS vehicle). The distinctive BWB fuselage with 'bulbus' aft section, twin...

Could this be tied to Isinglass or Rhineberry?

Isinglass! But I wonder if there's enough information for drawing... This thread recently included new material: http://www.secretprojects.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,382.msg140326.html#msg140326

...with the Project RHEINBERRY design effort. CIA contract No. NA-2000 to General Dynamics (Convair was a division of GD at this time) for an ISINGLASS type program (possibly a predecessor program or one that was congruent at the time of ISINGLASS (document dated 1964). This contract was for a...

...I think needs mentioning. Probably one of the bigger updates, I think, would be the the information we dug up four years ago on Project ISINGLASS. The last edition offered up images of the IGV and other McDonnell hypersonics as speculation on ISINGLASS. But we now we know the actual...

If you look at the date on the top of that document, it was declassified in 2011. I've had that and a bunch of other ISINGLASS documents since then (well, probably 2012) and have written some articles about them. I think some of the articles are linked elsewhere in this thread. (If you look at...

Actually, that need not be too big of a problem. The only places to put the ISINGLASS on a B-52 are on top (unlikely), under a wing root like the X-15, or in a heavily modified bomb bay (maybe). Putting it under a wing root seems most likely . But evena beast like the ISINGLASS wouldn;t put...

Andreas, from your point of you, does the book has any really *exciting* stuff - apart of Isinglass drawings (which is real attractive for me in the case)?

One question about Isinglass still puzzles me: The engine seems huge for an air-launched vehicle. Mulready's book gives a loaded weight of 132,000 pounds, but that seems pretty massive even for a B-52, particularly asymmetrically carried, and still won't allow a lot of burn time on a 250K...

...AF contract number mentioned, "F04611-68-C-0002", can give you some very interesting search results. Across the speed and altitude range an ISINGLASS vehicle would be boosting through the nozzle would be very efficient, though wether it's efficient enough to justify the added complexity and...

Attached: a whole lot of CIA documents, related to ISINGLASS. Just in case the links are taken down. Nothing new, the docs have been discussed earlier in this thread.

Hi for the sake of information contextualization / archival intent, here is the page extract wherein this outlined artwork appears. A.

Slightly off-topic... one little question that's been bugging me for months: How do you pronounce ISINGLASS? Is it like "is in glass" [izinglas] or "I sing lass" [aisinglas]?

...one undated document that indicates that RHEINBERRY was a McD proposal for an air-launched boost-glide system that had much promise, and ISINGLASS was a canceled GD program. See earlier confusion in this thread (and on Wiki) about whether or not ISINGLASS was a GD program or McD. Now the...

bummer :-[ One of these days we'll hear the whole story, MAYBE. PS- What i'd really love to see get de-classed is Project ISINGLASS. I'm sure there's something interesting there.
