The decision to produce F-117A was taken on November 1, 1978 and a contract was signed with Lockheed Advanced Development Projects, known as Skunk Works in Burbank and California. The program was managed by Ben Rich and Alan Brown became the director of the project. Rich called on Bill Schroeder, a Lockheed mathematician and Overholser, a computer scientist, to benefit from the work of Ufimtsev. The three designed a computer program called "Echo", which made it possible to design a plane with flat panels called faculties, arranged to distribute more than 99 %of a radar's signal energy.
The first YF-117A, which has a serial number 79-10780, made its first flight from Groom Lake ("Area 51") in Nevada on June 18, 1981, just 31 months after the full-scale development decision. The first production was delivered in F-117A in 1982 and the operation capability was achieved in October 1983. Nevada, Nellis Air Force Base 4450. Tactical group, early F- 's operational development was assigned. They used LTV A-7 Corsair IIs between 117 and 1981 (before the first models) and 1989.
The F-117 was hidden for most of the 1980s. Many news articles discussed what they call the "F-19" secret fighter, and Tesor Corporation has produced a very wrong scale model. When a F-117 fell in the National Forest of Sequoia in July 1986, when the pilot killed and fire, the air force established a limited airspace. Armed guards, including firefighters, banned the entrance and a helicopter warship area surrounded. The entire F-117 wreck was replaced by the remains of a F-101A Voodoo accident stored in the area 51. When another fatal accident occurred in Nellis in October 1987, the army gave very little information to the press.
Until November 10, 1988, the Air Force denied the existence of the plane until the F-19 "flour of the" F-19 "flour, at a Pentagon press conference by Deputy Defense Minister J. Daniel Howard. After the announcement, the pilots were able to fly the daytime F-117 and no longer need to be associated with the A-7, instead of traveling and training T-38 supersonic training aircraft. In April 1990, two F-117 aircraft flew to Nellis, arrived in daylight, and shown in front of a crowd of tens of thousands of people.
Five full-scale development (FSD) aircraft called "YF-117A" was built. The last of the 59 production F-117 was delivered on 3 July 1990.
F-117 Flight Show As the Air Force points out, "Aviation Systems Center, Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio facilitated management, combined the ground with the secret technology that raises the plane quickly and production ... F-117A program should be designed for reliability and sustainability of a ghost."
