The plane though highly modified is still in service.

I stand corrected. It's only natural though. After all the money they poured into its development and initial deployment and the Groom Lake facility where it was tested. High five for the designers and builders of the day. Nothing is built to last this long anymore. Plus it took a near space shot to bring one down.

Not an easy feat in and of itself. Props to the Soviets on their aim.

What is sad is the CIA had to lay off the employee who was keeping Area 51 a secret for so log:

"This is not the alien warehouse you are looking for..."

Didn´t the government acknowledge it´s existance many years ago?

The government may have acknowledged "an" Area 51, but do we know it is "the" Area 51? (cue dramatic music)

Existence of what? Area 51?
There's no such place.

Just look right here if you would please...
