Wow, no big announcement, no media coverage, but the end of first generation stealth:

I saw a story on it on ABS World News, and of course George Knapp and Channel 8 in Vegas covered it. Here is a link, there is the story and a video of the coverage.

Nighthawk Retired

They even interviewed Dreamland Resort Webmaster Joerg Arnu.

Kinda makes you sit back and appreciate just how advanced our military R&D is above any other country.

We have retired our stealth fighter after 25 years of service, a freaking generation, while no other country even has one operational.....(at least I think!)

I know what you mean, when I heard that they were going to retire it, I was not sure if I heard them correctly! It seems just like yesterday when we were watching it roll out and take an active roll in combat.

There are still two Nighthawks flying at Air Force Plant 42 at Palmdale, California. It would be nice to know when the final flight takes place. There will probably not be an announcement.
