[quote=YINDUFFY,313288]It has been pointed out that the plane was actually designed in the late 70's and early 80's under great secrecy. The design is now about 30 years old and technology has developed past that used in the F-117. The Air force wanted to retire them earlier but they did so well in the 1st Gulf war that Congress told the Air Force to keep them. They are basically a first generation product and there are probably some problems that they don't want to talk about. These problems will be corrected in future aircraft.[/quote]
