There was some mention last week in the news that the new stealth
fighter was used during the attack on the PDF headquarters in
Panama. I thought this was real interesting but I haven't seen
any followup anywhere.
Does anyone know anything else about this? Was the fighter
actually used in the attack or was it strictly there for recon?
I was expecting someone to post some information on this to this
group by now.

According to published sources, eight F-117a Stealth fighter planes were used to drop two 2000 pound bombs on a communications site near Rio Hato. -- Michael Tighe, mjt@ncsc.org
