I had that Stealth Fighter model too! Testors sold it as an F-19 and it's wings were really rounded off. Looked nothing like the F-117.
The F-19 and the F-117A were both made by Lockheed and used the same engines, same landing gear and other similar parts. The F-19 looks identical to the the model that Testor's made and was the airplane that Gen. Bond was killed in in 1984 (not the MiG-23 that was the 'official' rumor) when the aircraft crashed into Little Skull Mountain just north of highway 95, several miles northwest of Mercury at the Nevada Test Site. 62 of them were made. Nobody was allowed to transfer from working on the F-117A to the F-19 or vice versa in an attempt to limit the knowledge that Lockheed built 2 different stealth aircraft.
