    You are not alone on that one. I actually worked on that thing when I still worked at Perot systems and the stealth is more a nano-tech based chameleon skin rather than actually deflecting anything. Didn't work on that just talked to the smart guys. That's just the skin though I know nothing more than that and am probably breaking company secrets right now. But it looks like it's a pretty bad plane regardless if you hear experts talking about it. Nobody really likes that thing it seems. No reach, half of the ability to stay in an area, no way it can outmanoevre much faster jets, pretty bad deal I'd say
