The U.S. Navy has patents on weird and little understood technology. According to patents filed by the Navy, it is working on a compact fusion reactor that could power cities, an engine that works using “inertial mass reduction,” and a “hybrid aerospace-underwater craft.” Dubbed the “UFO patents, The War Zone has reported that the Navy had to build prototypes of some of the outlandish tech to prove it worked.
Dr. Salvatore Cezar Pais is the man behind the patents and The War Zone has proven the man exists, at least on paper. Pais has worked for a number of different departments in the Navy, including the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division (NAVAIR/NAWCAD) and the Strategic Systems Programs. (SSP) The SSP mission, according to its website, is to “provide credible and affordable strategic solutions to the warfighter.” It’s responsible for developing the technology behind the Trident class nuclear missiles launched from Submarines.

Fusion as a modulatable energy source does remain a valuable goal.
indeed, I’ve seen things developed 30 years ago that is still not public as technological use in the public sector today..
is Hitler coming back from a parallel moon base? Just sayin?
saying? No Issue , they got everything during the Clintoon’s reign.
UNLESS the government classifies it...in which case it either does NOT become public knowledge or not until the tech is independently invented or revealed by another party. In which case the classified patent has date priority.
There are other fusion reactions than D-T.
“UNLESS the government classifies it...”
You mean that there is a sliver of hope that the Biden administration will not immediately turn it all over to their CCP overlords?
I wuz gonna engineer the fabric of reality but her bra hooks were welded together.
You think we can use it to escape Clown World, but it will just give us infinite trannies.
Reminds me of Q's suggested method of preventing a moon from crashing into a planet. It was simple: just change the gravitational constant of the universe.
“ an engine that works using “inertial mass reduction,”
Reminds me of a brake.
The feds can intercept the patent or even the prepatent steps before it becomes public and throw it behind a classified, very black curtain. The patent owner, if the feds choose so, will not even know what the feds are or are not using the patent for. As the patent owner, they will be paid royalties.
A company I worked for had a unique product for its time, that had a ridiculously fast microprocessor. Basically, we were about 20 years ahead of IBM and AMD hadn't even been born yet. It was equally expensive.
The corporate strategies were 1) to not patent and instead go proprietary and 2) to never sell our products to a federal agency of any country.
Our microprocessor and ROM were encased in an epoxy block plus I think had some self destruct electrical provisions as well. Basically, the idea was if anyone tried extract the microprocessor/ROM or tamper with them they would just have a useless piece of semiconductor that could not be reverse engineered or decoded. It worked.
I've filed a number of patent disclosures over the years. No patent applications were filed however. In some cases, the corporate patent lawyers declined to pursue a filing and in others the corporation decided that its best interests were served by keeping the info confidential.
Unfortunately, no, as it is the President who ultimately decides what stays classified and what is de-classified.
Just a cover for Flubber II.
Good point.
A week or two after the original War Zone article, they published a follow up article with a FOIA response from the Navy to effect that the patent applications were legitimate, the inventor person was an employee and IIRC is still an employee. The gentleman seems to float from agency to program within Naval R&D.
LOL! You're right.
