Tell that to the people of Iraq and Afghanistan.  They haven\'t lost a single aircraft since desert storm in 1991 and they have flown tons of missions since then.  They must be just a little difficult to see. ;)

Actually, they are quite stealthy.  There\'s one parked on that forklift, for example.

But yea, it\'s not like the Afghans even have radars anyway.  They just put a guy on top of a mountain and he looks through a cardboard paper towel tube.

actually, they do show up on radar
just not in the image of something of great size

its impossible to dissapear completely from radar

the f117 [stealth fighter] doesnt possess any right angles or external features that might reflect the radar

Here in Las Vegas/ Nellis AFB is "home" of stealth bombers. I see them flying around all the time. Very cool jets indeed. At night I hear them but they are like ghosts.
