F-19 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The most prevalent theory in the 1980s was that it was the designation of the stealth fighter whose development was an open secret in the aerospace community. It also should be noted that Jane's began using the F-19 designation for a stealth fighter project by Lockheed in 1984. In 1988, Microprose released a computer game entitled F-19 Stealth Fighter, which to this day remains the definitive computer simulation of stealth air combat. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/F-19   (630 words)

Fighter aircraft - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Fighters such as the MiG-23 and Panavia Tornado have versions specially suited for various roles, while the multirole warplanes including the F/A-18 Hornet and Dassault Mirage 2000 are just as suited for ground attack as they are for aerial combat. A fighter aircraft is a military aircraft designed primarily for attacking other aircraft, as opposed to a bomber, which is designed to attack ground targets, primarily by dropping bombs. Fighter aircraft were developed during World War I, and used to hunting down enemy reconnaissance aircraft and balloons. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Fighter_aircraft   (1558 words)

Rediscovering Air Superiority: Vietnam, the F-X, and the 'Fighter Mafia" The Fighter Mafia’s arguments, taken to their extreme, would have been nearly as damaging as the design priorities of the 1950s-- the versions of the F-15 and F-16 the group had in mind were not intended for any type of ground attack role. It was at this point that the military establishment, the Fighter Mafia, fighter pilots from the pre-1950s schools of thought now in positions of authority, and the war in Vietnam all collided and made the post-Vietnam War fighters revolutionary instead of merely evolutionary. Fighters were not designed to perform ACM and other functions that they would be called upon for in limited wars that were thought unlikely during the immediate post-WWII years. www.airpower.maxwell.af.mil /airchronicles/cc/jim.html   (2529 words)

F-19 by David W. Aungst (Testors 1/48) This is the old Testors (Italeri) 1/48th scale F-19 Stealth Fighter. The stealth fighters used in the story are described as looking like the Testors kit, and the pilots are said to refer to the aircraft as the "Frisbee". This is a great little kit that (in spite of being "stealth") really stands out on my model display shelves. www.kitparade.com /features02/f19da_1.htm   (829 words)

F-22 Raptor - Military Aircraft This is an important factor in the F-22's stealth characteristics, and it improves the fighter's aerodynamics by dramatically reducing drag, which, in turn, improves the F-22's range. Problems resolved, F-22 fighter is ready for release, Stars and Stripes, 27 October 2000 -- The Air Force is scheduled to release the F-22, its next-generation fighter, in little more than a month after overcoming software and mechanical engineering problems, Air Force Secretary F. Whitten Peters said Thursday. House votes to reduce F-22 budget (AFPN) 23 Jul 1999 -- The U.S. House of Representatives voted July 22 to cancel the $1.8 billion procurement portion of the $3.0 billion requested for the F-22 in fiscal 2000. www.fas.org /man/dod-101/sys/ac/f-22.htm   (2964 words)

NEXT GENERATION F/A-22 RAPTOR: Stealth fighter crashes Equipped with stealth technology to help it evade enemy aircraft, the twin-engine Raptor flies fast enough to cross the 12,000-square-mile Nellis range in seven minutes. By looking at the crash rates of today versus the fighter A/Cs during the 50s, 60, and 70s, today's fighters are much more safer. Today, fighters are less at being lawn darts than the early days. www.freerepublic.com /focus/f-news/1306060/posts   (2480 words)

Home of the Underdogs - Entry: F-19 Stealth Fighter F-19 Stealth Fighter hearkens to an earlier age when a 1MB PC (notably the Amiga) was the hottest gaming machine on the market, and though its gloss is somewhat faded now when compared with more recent Gouraud-shaded simulators, F-19 Stealth Fighter still offers one thrilling ride. So, even considering the holes in the simulation - keep in mind that the real stealth fighter wasn't yet built - the game took on the nature of a "thinking man's sim", a real departure from the reflex-heavy simulators of the time. Although the F-19 was adequately armed (free-fall and guided bombs, Vulcan 20mm cannon, and over a half-dozen missile types for land, sea, and/or air), the electronic profile and stealth elements were so well done that it was often more fun to avoid a dogfight than to engage in one. www.the-underdogs.org /game.php?id=2229   (374 words)

Lockheeds f-19 stealth fighter - Above Top Secret Conspiracy Community Stealth technology at the time was one of our military's worst-kept secrets, and it was assumed that F-19 had been reserved for that department. Whish is supposed to give it big advanteges.(you know that stealth aircraft aint invisable...only the distance in which the plane is spotted by a radar decreases)and 13 decibels reduses this distanse at a half... that the russian stealth technology (yes, there was one and maybe there are more that we don't know about) was based on a special "paint" that could absorb different sorts of radiation(like radiowaves from a radar). www.abovetopsecret.com /forum/thread23022/pg1   (1761 words)

F-117 Nighthawk Airplane Models and model kits. The reason the F-117 stealth fighter flies subsonic is not to announce it's presence on approach to the target, if you do the math, I'm sure someone could figure out that is has the thrust to weight ratio to make it possible. However, another unknown stealth factor is that the internal electronics produce a very low emission of radio frequencies. The modern stealth airplane is defined as a plane with a low radar return signature. www.yellowairplane.com /Models_Fighters/airplane_models_F117.html   (996 words)

Street Fighter II - William F Guile He apparently died in prison, and Guile, with Charlie's dogtags in hand, fled into the jungle (In a later version of Street Fighter, the character of "Charlie Nash" appeared, who I presume is the same Charlie.). He likes to be on the edge, either in a combat fire-fight, flying a test plane at close to Mach 2.5, or engaging in a one-on-one Street Fighter match.

Air Force, Lockheed Talk About Fighter (F/A-22 Cost Overruns) The stealthy, supersonic fighter, described as a successor to the aging F-15, is expected to be faster than any other, more automated and able to travel greater distances without refueling. Roche and his aides met privately with Lockheed executives for several hours at the Marietta plant, where the stealth fighter jets are being built. The Europeans, however, do no such thing, and this results is building a fighter that is obsolete the day the contract is signed, let alone 10-years later when it rolls off the production line. www.freerepublic.com /focus/news/805047/posts   (1470 words)

F19 Stealth Fighter in MiGMan's Flight Sim Museum - www.migman.com I also remember that the fighters never seemed to fire at you, it was always the SAMs - except for the Soviet AWACS "Mainstay" - these always seemed to be armed to the teeth with the latest AA missiles and they weren't shy about using them either !!

PM: Overpriced F/A-22 Raptor Fighter Jet Designed in 1986 to counter emerging Soviet fighter designs, the F-22 was meant to do more than keep up with the MiGs. The F/A-22 Raptor is the most sophisticated fighter in the U.S. arsenal, but cost overruns and problems such as December's crash in Vegas have soured the DOD on the project. Nonetheless, the Raptor likely will go down as a case study in how not to develop a fighter. www.popularmechanics.com /science/defense/1547927.html   (720 words)
