No idea about the UAV swarm, but in case anyone's interested...

reference the March 12th 2019 image, I was in Tonopah that day and VOODOO1 was on my SBS, operating in the China Lake-Edwards area. I assumed it was a C-12J but as we know N289MT B727 uses the same callsign and although the author of the article supposes a B757 on the ramp, it could be a B727.

The day after the image was taken I had 3x CN-235s on the SBS which landed at North Las Vegas. Activity at TTR was Beech 200 N661BA which spent an hour checking the runway lights, Dagger 08 which arrived (type unknown) and SABER01 which taxied/towed from D to A ramp (or vice versa?). D ramp is F-117A area and A ramp Janet parking apron. Last time I heard SABER01 it was N105TB Gulfstream of MIT, which had arrived at TNX a week prior from Pt Mugu. I had left before the F-117As flew that evening and were reported near Death Valley.
