Main goal here is to make sure that warbirds don't cost more than early jets, but this includes rebalancing of all aircraft.

description: The Lockheed F-117 Nighthawk is a semi-retired American single-seat,
|
|
twin-engine stealth attack aircraft that was developed by Lockheed's secretive Skunk
|
|
Works division and operated by the United States Air Force (USAF). It was the first
|
|
operational aircraft to be designed around stealth technology. The F-117 was widely
|
|
publicized for its role in the Persian Gulf War of 1991. Although it was commonly
|
|
referred to as the 'Stealth Fighter', it was strictly a ground-attack aircraft.
|
|
F-117s took part in the conflict in Yugoslavia, where one was shot down and another
|
|
damaged by surface-to-air missiles (SAM) in 1999. The U.S. Air Force retired the
|
|
F-117 in April 2008, primarily due to the fielding of the F-22 Raptor. Despite the
|
|
type's retirement, a portion of the fleet has been kept in airworthy condition,
|
|
and Nighthawks have been observed flying in 2020.
