  Nighthawk - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nighthawks are birds of the nightjar family in the New World subfamily Chordeilinae.
Nighthawks are similar in most respects to the nightjars of the Old World, but have shorter bills and less soft plumage.
Nighthawks are less strictly nocturnal than many Old World nightjars, and may be seen hunting when there is still light in the sky.

 SDNHM Focus on The Lesser Nighthawk
The nighthawk may never have occurred in high density within this range but probably maintained its breeding population across the extensive mesas that are not largely occupied by human development.
A further restriction in nighthawk distribution is the scarcity of suitable cover in large areas of nearly level terrain.
Nighthawk nests are quite vulnerable and the birds are sensitive to disturbance, readily abandoning their reproductive investments when molested.

 F-117 Nighthawk - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Lockheed F-117A Nighthawk is the world's first operational aircraft completely designed around stealth technology.
Or, the "F-" designation may have been part of the attempt to keep the Nighthawk secret (the program was classified until the late 1980s).
During that invasion two F-117A Nighthawks dropped two bombs on Rio Hato airfield.

 F-117A Nighthawk
Nighthawks are large aircraft -- 65 feet long with a 43-foot wing span -- and each F-117A is slightly different from the others.
The Nighthawk's angularity and the need to keep the paint spray nozzles at exactingly precise distances from the aircraft's surface at all times require both accuracy and adaptability to adjust for variabilities from one aircraft to another.
The first Nighthawk to be refurbished with the new coating was done manually by five painters and a masking crew, and took 4 and a half days.

 The Robert Nighthawk Story
Nighthawk's life remains somewhat indistinct; for one he never stayed in Chicago long enough to establish himself, he was interviewed only briefly and unlike many artists didn't appreciably benefit from the blues boom of the 1960's.
Nighthawk was born Robert Lee McCollum in Helena, Arkansas, on Nov. 30 1909 to Ned and Mattie McCollum.
Nighthawk was apparently already well known in the south by the time he headed to St. Louis as Muddy Waters recalls: "Oh, he was popular all over Mississippi man. And he left and came north in the 30's.

Listen to Nighthawk's guitar wailing on "Crying Won't Help You" or" The Moon Is Rising" (two takes, one previously unissued, are included here), coupled with a rich, resonant voice that sounds equally at home on ballads and uptempo rockers.
Nighthawk plays some mean slide guitar and even a few single-string leads, and sounds very much like a man who could have given Muddy Waters a run for his money.
Robert Nighthawk's brand of blues is somewhere in between Elmore James and early amplified Muddy Waters, and this CD, along with the fabulous "Live on Maxwell Street", would serve as a fine introduction to this underrated but influential and hugely talented bluesman.

 Rebel Raiders: Operation Nighthawk for PlayStation 2 Review - PlayStation 2 Rebel Raiders: Operation Nighthawk Review
Rebel Raiders: Operation Nighthawk isn't on the level of those games, with its simplistic flight and combat modeling, as well as its budget-oriented presentation.
Ace Combat 04: Shattered Skies is a highly enjoyable, well-executed flight sim that perfectly blends the action elements found in the series' earlier games with the sort of narrative typically reserved for other genres.
You'll find that the controls are just a little too sluggish, making it feel as though you're driving a run-down school bus instead of a quick and nimble jet fighter or helicopter.
