Battle Stations - 2000 F117 Nighthawk Stealth 2-10 was released on: USA: 2004
try the f117 nighthawk or the MIG-29 Twin 55mm you can buy them at NitroPlanes.com
The F117 Nighthawk is not particularly fast, max speed id just over 600 mph. It's big virtue was the fact that it was invisible to radar. -They are all retired now, due mainly to excessive maintenance costs.
Currently, the B2 Spirit and the F22 Raptor. The F117 Nighthawk has been retired, as has the 'reduced RCS' SR-71 Blackbird. The F35 isn't scheduled to be delivered until 2016.
Pin point accuracy with Toma-hawk cruise missiles & the new F117 Stealth fighter/bomber.
None of it, so you can rest easy with the assurance that the Nazis won't blow up DC with an F117 carrying a nuclear payload.
Yes they did, also alot more than aircraft technology as well, the german's had schematics for stealth, rocket and intercontinental missiles, they also had plans for a "flying saucer" which was built and tested, however, most of this technology was destroyed but the americans stole the plans and even bought in german scientists to work at groom lake nevada where the german's developed the V2, later developments were the F117 nighthawk and SR71 blackbird and the apollo space program, this all spawned from german advancements in missile, aircraft and weapon technology.
Based on a little research I just did, the F117's maximum speed is just under Mach 1 (the speed of sound). Some bullets travel much slower than that, and some travel much faster, so it just depends on which bullet you're referring to.
Low Intensity Conflict Radar is a kind of radar that can pick up even the lowest radar cross section of anything made up of metal that is flying in the sky. For example it has the ability of picking up stealth military jets as well. Although there is a lot of clutter so you have to clean it up. NATO F117 night hawk was shot down during the Bosnian war using Low intensity radar.
Nothing earth shaking; just slow changes such as age laws concerning voting, or military conscription laws being discarded in favor of an all volunteer military. Security wise, the world felt alittle distrustful of the US, believing the US to be a "paper tiger." Demonstrated in the mid 70's with a US hostage situation in South Central Asia. Militarily, the Vietnam War DID give rise to the best jet aircraft in the world: F14 Tomcats, F15 Eagles, F16 Falcons, F117 Stealth Fighters, B1 & B2 Bombers, and today's F22 Raptor. All of these superior fighting machines were born from the combat experience gained in the skies over North Vietnam by such US jets as the F4 Phantom, F105 Thunderchief, F104 Starfighter, and Firebee UAVs...not to mention U2's, SR-71's, and B52 Stratofortress's.
Stealth technology was invented about ten seconds after radar. There are several approaches to making a craft invisible to radar: 1) Absorbing the beam: This is what the microwave absorber patches on popcorn bags do to heat up their oil. But more sophisticated materials are layered on the vehicle's skins. It is even possible to etch "reflective-holograms of empty space" onto aluminum or stainless steel. Projected electron beams have been used but the technology is complicated. 2) Deflecting the beam: This was a Russian invention that the Lockheed Skunkworks people found and used to build stealth aircraft (F117). If reflecting surfaces don't allow the radar beam to return to the receiver...they can't detect the airplane. The airplanes look a little strange, but computers fly them well. 3) Passing the beam: Some materials just pass microwaves with little reflection or absorption. This is not practical for large structures.
