Well, that photo was mine too, though I don't recall any discussion
indicating what it was. Here you go:

I'm sure this new photo is something different.

I'll do some googling on those other code names.

More info. In the extended frame photo I saw a C-130 is parked to the
right of the mystery craft and is positively identified. Using the
C-130's dimensions and making a comparison with the object it is
approximately 38 feet in width, ruling out the F-117A which is 65 ft 11
in.
The computer rendering of the craft also reveals it to be somewhat
rounded at the midsection of which the F-117A is definately not. Also
the computer rendering suggested that the photo reveals this craft is
possibly tailless. There is NO F-117A tail there at all, despite the
paint suggestions. Due to angle it may have a stub tail/fin, the
computer image can't make it out.
I would suggest it is not a F-117A and was delivered by the C-130 from
another location. It may not even be completed but in fabrication.
The HYRAD is supposed to be a missile-looking craft with exotic engine-
could this be the bulge in the midsection?
Anyway, hope this helps somewhat...
