PRESIDENT JOHNSON REVEALS THE A-11 BLACKBIRD

This was a significant moment in the program because it allowed Kelly Johnson and Lockheed to openly lobby Congress for funding.

Kennedy wanted to kill the program and was in the process of cancelling the program when he was assassinated in Dallas one of the hubs of ANP development.
