F-117
"NightHawk" |
|

|
The F-117
is the only heavily guarded aircraft on display. Air Force guards
toting pistols and M-16s keep visitors at least 30 feet away from
the still-classified Stealth bomber. |
|
No matter how
many times I see it fly, it still looks like it could never get off
the ground. |
|
An infrared
missile doesn't have much to track at this angle. |

These next few photos are actually from the 1998 show (same base). I happened to walk up as they were towing the F-117 out to the flightline for it's demonstration. |
|
In case you've never realized just how big this baby is, take a look at the crewman riding in the cockpit. |
|
The Stealth looks just
as amazing being towed as it does in the air! |
