Actually, pretty much /nothing/ can touch an F-22 (one F-22 beat 5 F-15s in a practice flight before it was even spotted).

maybe the Arrow is good for Canadian tech...]]>Mar 12th 2008 8:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/11/f-117-stealth-fighters-to-make-final-flight-no-one-will-know-abo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/11/f-117-stealth-fighters-to-make-final-flight-no-one-will-know-abo/Mar 11th 2008 10:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/11/f-117-stealth-fighters-to-make-final-flight-no-one-will-know-abo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/11/f-117-stealth-fighters-to-make-final-flight-no-one-will-know-abo/Mar 11th 2008 11:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/11/f-117-stealth-fighters-to-make-final-flight-no-one-will-know-abo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/11/f-117-stealth-fighters-to-make-final-flight-no-one-will-know-abo/http://www.mobygames.com/game/dos/night-hawk-f-117a-stealth-fighter-20]]>Mar 12th 2008 1:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/11/f-117-stealth-fighters-to-make-final-flight-no-one-will-know-abo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/11/f-117-stealth-fighters-to-make-final-flight-no-one-will-know-abo/Mar 12th 2008 10:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/11/f-117-stealth-fighters-to-make-final-flight-no-one-will-know-abo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/11/f-117-stealth-fighters-to-make-final-flight-no-one-will-know-abo/Mar 11th 2008 10:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/11/f-117-stealth-fighters-to-make-final-flight-no-one-will-know-abo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/11/f-117-stealth-fighters-to-make-final-flight-no-one-will-know-abo/Mar 11th 2008 10:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/11/f-117-stealth-fighters-to-make-final-flight-no-one-will-know-abo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/11/f-117-stealth-fighters-to-make-final-flight-no-one-will-know-abo/]]>Mar 11th 2008 11:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/11/f-117-stealth-fighters-to-make-final-flight-no-one-will-know-abo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/11/f-117-stealth-fighters-to-make-final-flight-no-one-will-know-abo/Mar 11th 2008 11:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/11/f-117-stealth-fighters-to-make-final-flight-no-one-will-know-abo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/11/f-117-stealth-fighters-to-make-final-flight-no-one-will-know-abo/Mar 11th 2008 11:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/11/f-117-stealth-fighters-to-make-final-flight-no-one-will-know-abo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/11/f-117-stealth-fighters-to-make-final-flight-no-one-will-know-abo/Mar 11th 2008 11:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/11/f-117-stealth-fighters-to-make-final-flight-no-one-will-know-abo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/11/f-117-stealth-fighters-to-make-final-flight-no-one-will-know-abo/Mar 12th 2008 12:09AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/11/f-117-stealth-fighters-to-make-final-flight-no-one-will-know-abo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/11/f-117-stealth-fighters-to-make-final-flight-no-one-will-know-abo/

Yeah maybe we should level the playing field and make sure everything is fair first. That would make perfect sense. Why would we want to prevent allied casualties with technological advantage? Thats just silly!]]>Mar 12th 2008 9:30AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/11/f-117-stealth-fighters-to-make-final-flight-no-one-will-know-abo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/11/f-117-stealth-fighters-to-make-final-flight-no-one-will-know-abo/
I just completed my doctorate in Aerospace Engineering. The F-117A as well as other modern fighters all have inherent aerodynamic instabilities by design because this allows them to be more maneuverable. This is better than, say, air-to-air combat with a very stable Boeing 777. The aerodynamic instability has very little to do with the multifaceted appearance of the F-117A.]]>Mar 18th 2008 1:18PM
