US Air Force Confirms New Stealth Aircraft

[wraggster]

Aviation Week reports that the USAF has confirmed the existence of a new, formerly secret stealth aircraft, designated RQ-170 Sentinel, developed at Lockheed's legendary Skunk Works. Rumors of a secret new jet have been flying since 2007, with longtime aviation journalist Bill Sweetman dubbing the possible aircraft 'The Beast of Kandahar' because of the urban legend-like reports from Afghanistan. The aircraft is a UAV, a pilot-less drone that appears to have some kind of reconnaissance-only mission for the time being. It's a tailless flying wing that resembles a fighter-sized B-2 bomber

I've been hearing jets in the sky for about three months where I live, we have an invisible jet too, here in the UK... But I've not been able to capture any footage, though oneday if I'm quick I might actually see what is roaring through the sky for the brief five seconds before the silence.

I want to see the U.S. stealth jet also, these weapons interest me. :cool:
