Mystical Aircraft Lockheed F-117 Stealth Nighthawk
Weapons and Air Forces of the World

The history of aviation knows many examples of strange aircraft, which at one time or another climbed into the air. As a rule, these were experimental models, the fruits of the creative search for engineers who were never able to leave the walls of the design bureaus and did not go to the series. But there are a few exceptions in this rule.

The F-117 aircraft participated in hostilities in Panama, Bosnia and Iraq. Many of its technical parameters are still classified. According to some information, it flies at a near-sound speed and takes on board more than 2 tons of various munitions. Atypical configuration of the fuselage ensures its invisibility for radars.
