Short video in Spanish presenting, in about two minutes, the technical profile of the Lockheed F-117 Nighthawk, a subsonic stealth attack aircraft.
It explains that the F for fighter was assigned during testing, even though it is an attack aircraft that also fits as a tactical bomber. Its shape makes the radar echo disproportionate to its size, at the cost of making it unstable, and during its testing in the United States there were many UFO sightings attributed to it.
It gives a range of 1,722 km, General Electric F404-F1D2 turbofan engines, and a service ceiling of 13,716 m. Its armament includes BLU-109 bombs, laser-guided GBU-10, GBU-12, and GBU-27, JDAM with INS and GPS guidance, and the B61 nuclear bomb. The avionics and radar are listed as classified information.
