"how about a foreign version....? british?"

Don't think that was the thrust (:-)) of the document - it seems focused on local factors/other activities that could potentially compromise the covert mission of the A-12. So stuff like other blackbird manufacturing, non-A12 flight test activities at A51, more clearances/more people, etc all potential threats to keeping the A12 covert. Then under Hardware the redacted "vehicle"... Maybe the M-21 but if TAGBOARD (Drone) is listed why would a reference to the the M-21 be redacted..

Or maybe OATMEAL?

No?
