I'm pretty sure a lot of that kind of intel is data they keep close and don't share, success or failure. Don't want the "enemy" to know capabilities. I know that the high altitude surveillance blimp that was operated down in S Florida with limited success. It being slow and easy to see, may have hindered it's success.
