The F-117 was designed to absorb heat and distribute it across the body to avoid thermal detection. Also, it was designed in such a way to not only avoid radar detection, but also harder to see with your own eyes, if far away and at the correct angle. Stealth is technically a defense. The safest bomber is one that can’t be spotted in the first place.
@@GermaniumSteel There are things besides bases to bomb in air sim. Hopefully it'll get it's GBU-27s on the live server, and that they'll be good at blowing up ships.
I wonder if having the bomb bays open changes it's detectability. The only F-117 shot down was because the SAM operator turned it on at the exact moment the bomb bays were open.
In about another two decades or more, it'll be paving the way for the stealth fighters we have today, for example, the raptor would be first to get in I think since it's the oldest, but the F 35 could come first too since it's being exported
I know, it would be so good! I lived on an RAF base while I was younger so had the privilege of going to ALOT of air shows and was able to see the Vulcan a few times before it was retired.

Hey @WeBeStronk just a little tip for the gps bombs, you dont need to put the retical over the target at all because they will pitch up to hit the target unlike laser guided bombs so they can be dropped a significant amount of distance from the target point and still reach it, hope this helps! 👍👍
The funny thing is that this thing is gonna either encounter things with no radar or very weak radar so this stealth helps out a lot with those since it’s gonna be 10.0
It’s a game at the end of the day and needs to be viable. Besides it can mount missiles, the military just didn’t do it. It could mount every munition in the American arsenal.
@@lantucker114 no it could not. as a matter of fact, there was a specific variant that was made FOR air to air ability. the Missiles that it could carry were only a test and even then it was more of an ad-hoc modification.
I personally think for air RB only friendlies should have the obvious tags. Enemies should only be visible, visually and only to other team mates if you target them and give a command to relay their location over radio. This would make the game play MUCH more realistic. Obviously have them show on radar that should go without saying but that way radar is actually useful far more in RB.
its best use is gonna be precision targeting in night battles with the paveways. I don't see much of a use beyond that. It is a welcomed use case though since there isn't another plane like it, irl or in game
I'm pretty sure the Nighthawk wasn't supersonic because it would require afterburners, and afterburners would 1) greatly increase thermal signature, 2) most likely mess up with the specially shaped engine nozzles of the F-117. I want the Handley Page Victor though.
In my opinion I think that the Stealth Bomber will introduce a different Category of playstyle. F-35's and Stealth Modern Aircrafts and because this introduction this means that people or players will have the ability to increase the chances to get to higher tiers. with better output. For example: Taking out a Stealth Bomber plane is going to double maybe triple your Lions, This is because it is "Semi-Invisible" to Radar from the front. But Hitting this Aircraft is extremely difficult for even Modern Aircraft. IR Missiles are going to struggle as the Exhaust of the plane has a dispersion effect as it flies it still produces thrust... But that thrust is hyper cooled, This is also additionally to the B-2 Bomber. This is also going to be an extreme High Altitude bomber. This bomber is best used during Night operations due to the Dark paint making it practically invisible. As for gameplay... I am eager to wonder what they intend with Stealth capabilities. Due to the game modes they have it's 100% not going to be enjoyable. It doesn't take a Critic or a enthusiast to know that Gaijin is making a risky move... But on the upside their updated graphics and capabilities is going to be nice. One final thing I will say though. The maximum speed is 623 mph (1,003 km/h; 541 kn) at high altitude, the max rate of climb is 2,820 feet (860 m) per minute, and service ceiling is 43,000 to 45,000 feet (13,000 to 14,000 m). So this plane can climb pretty quickly and some Jet Bombers especially in the U.S.A side does not have this Relic... It's going to be interesting in Med-top tier.
Absolutely agree on allowing "useless" plane and vehicles in WT. They've admitted as much when it comes to the Sturmtiger, Tog 2, and now this how they're a novelty and not as practical. Having it as squadron vehicle as opposed to grind event is also appreciated, players can unlock it at their leisure. As far as stealth aspect goes for the F-117 IRST and contrast locking missiles seem to ignore it head on while everything else can lock from behind. I can see future stealth aircraft posing an issue balance wise (stealth fighter vs non stealth fighters) but we know Gaijin will add them eventually, maybe in a "balanced" state like the Brimstone missiles.
1:57 When I was 3 or 4, one of these things flew really close to the ground at my house and looking back it probably was about to crash into the yard/me but pulled up in time. Must have been like 150-200 feet from the ground.
I think if they put this thing at 10.0, maybe 9.3, it would be able to do its job and use its special ability. Most planes with radar at 9.3 and 10.0 aren’t the absolute best and you can achieve perfect stealth without facing the enemy by just flying low or in front of mountains.
Gaijin should just give it a fog, like if you try to lock on to it, all you see is a blur of static and your radar lock locking everywhere but the nighthawk.
It’s a game at the end of the day and needs to be viable. Besides it can mount missiles, the military just didn’t do it. It could mount every munition in the American arsenal.
I'm going to treat it like a M109 and bring it into top tier because that's what it was designed for. Plus the f-117 can prob hold its own unless it gets to close and gets gunned
Hear me out... Make another version with Air to air capabilities, for the current one make it a nuke bomber for night battles, also make it completely undetectable as a nuke bomber, meaning the only way to stop it is aim.
It just feels odd for this to be in 8.7, fighting along with aircrafts 30 years behind... Yes I get it, it's only carrying 2 bombs but still. Imagine a match of sabres and mig-15s, and then suddenly there's an F-117 stealth attack aircraft.
At 14:00 you got sot down by the LAV AD. This is probably due to the fact you had your bomb bay open increasing your radar cross section, making you more visible.
The only reason everyone remembers the hopeless diamond is because its been shot down. And it is has a fighter designation so lets not refer to it as a bomber as its classification by the USA AIR FORCE and USA Government as a fighter
This aircraft should be given better stealth, as its not very effective as it stands and wouldn't even be able to bomb at all, however It would also be balanced by that fact that it is basically made of tissue paper and can't turn for shot and would be torn to bits by gunfire of likely any kind.
Gaijin should rank them based on date entered service instead of ranking them on how good they are. Everything should be allies vs axis unless a custom lobby. Js..
Frankly, its a vanity item. It cant combat aircraft at its BR, its gimmick will hardly be usable at its BR, it can still be spotted by the mark 1 eyeball like every other plane, a lot of whats at its BR can catch it and it can't do anything to fight back let alone fly defensively because immediate flat spin, if uptiered the jamming will only work when flying head on which wont happen in most cases, in GRB all SPAAs will get a pretty easy lock because again it wont be flying directly at the battlezone.... There's just too many things that it CANT do, and what it can it doesnt get many chances to do so.
14:12 “So they can see me” My brother in Christ, your bomb bay doors were open that whole flight. That was one of the big risks of the F117, they were stealth until they opened their bomb bay doors. Now, he didn’t have a radar or radar missiles. But I’m sure the bomb bay has enough radiating heat to attract said missile. Great video, getting a like, don’t open bomb bay till last second!
I still think it's just a test plane for more stealth jets like Eurofighter,f-22, f-35, su-57 and maybe b-2. Yes the Eurofighter has a slight stealth capability from the front.
I read it was because the US Airforce wanted to attract fighter pilots to operate it. Most fighter pilots see it as a demotion to transfer to a bomber.

@@RhodesianSuperiority What part of ‘suites’ can you not understand….Stealth isn’t just obtuse angles and paint?
Keep in mind that, the only reason that the F-117 was shot down is because its bombay was open
you already did a video to the strike eagle?
still wonder why they called it the F-117 when it wasn't a fighter
I read it was because the US Airforce wanted to attract fighter pilots to operate it. Most fighter pilots see it as a demotion to transfer to a bomber.
