Depends on whether it was actually trying to be stealthy when they detected it. It's my understanding that most of the time the F-117 projects a radar signal, so that controllers can see it. It only goes stealthy when it's on an attack run. -- Laura Burchard lhb6v@virginia.edu lhb6v@virginia.bitnet #inc ..this is the staring unsleeping Eye of the earth, and what it watches is not our wars. -Robinson Jeffers
