F-117A Nighthawk
Although its technology is 25 years old, the F-117A Nighthawk stealth fighter is still one of the most advanced planes in the world.
All sharp angles and radar-absorbing skin, its specialty is flying low into heavily protected areas to drop its 2,000-pound precision bombs on bunkers and command posts, clearing the way for less stealthy fighters, helicopters and troops.
The Nighthawk was the stuff of science fiction. It could fly across enemy skies and through the world's most advanced radar systems without being detected. This capability allowed the aircraft to perform reconnaissance missions and bomb critical targets, all without the enemy knowing who or what had hit them.
It doesn't matter what defenses you put up, how deep you try to hide or how much you surround yourself with collateral damage, this airplane will come and get you."
