¡ÚAbout F-117 Nighthawkt¡Û

The F-117, known as the world's first operational stealth fighter, was deployed and operated by the U.S. Air Force from 1983 to 2008. The aircraft had a unique appearance, combining complex planar shapes, and its surface was coated with radar-absorbent material. It was powered by two F404-GE-F102 turbofan engines. The exhaust ports were positioned above the fuselage, featuring slots designed to dissipate heated air and eliminate radiant heat. The ¡ÈSkunk Works¡É, known for developing various masterpiece aircraft, was responsible for the design and engineering, creating excellent stealth capabilities. The aircraft made its combat debut during the 1989 invasion of Panama. Later, in the Gulf War of 1991, the aircraft achieved great success by leveraging its stealth capabilities in a night attack on a defense facility in Baghdad.
