Why this aircraft matters

The F-117A Nighthawk became the world's first operational stealth combat aircraft. Developed in secrecy during the late Cold War, it entered service in 1983 and changed the way air forces approached strike missions. Its unique faceted shape reduced radar detection and allowed it to penetrate heavily defended airspace.

Aircraft 84-0809 represents one of the surviving Nighthawks that remained active in limited roles after the fleet's official retirement. During 2022, F-117s continued to appear during training and evaluation missions across the United States, demonstrating that the aircraft still provided value decades after its introduction.

The overall black finish became one of the most recognisable military aircraft liveries ever applied. Combined with the angular airframe, it created an aircraft that remains instantly identifiable to aviation enthusiasts around the world.

The inclusion of B57 and B61 bomb replicas highlights the aircraft's original role as a precision strike platform during one of the most significant periods in modern military aviation history.
