Thats the bird of prey... Im pretty sure.

no idea, looks pretty cool though

This has showed up on ATS before. Its from a movie. It is not real. The older sister from the TV show "7th Heaven" is the star.

That is not the Bird of Prey, Switchblade or anything else.
(Note USAF insignias on a plane sitting on a Navy vessel)
This is a plane made for the upcoming movie "Stealth".
It does not fly, but it sure looks good on the runway.

bios

darn.

Seemed pretty neat though.. We had a little topic goin' on over a gdc.. Thanks for clearing that up.

It is the plane from 'Stealth'

The people at GlobalSecurity put it on their site recently

Yeah I had heard it was called the Talon or something. Wonder if the movies any good. Sure looked cool. It looks a bit big to launch off a carrier though.

Wow! Great find!
I have not seen this one before.
It has USAF emblems.
Swept movable wings.
Stelth design and exhaust like F117A.
No thrust vectoring, so I dont think its a YF22.
Its sitting on a Aircraft carrier?
Single seater.

Maybe a new version of the F117A stelth bomber?
Its swept wing design make me think this is a fast flyer unlike the 117, but this plane has movable wings, so it possible could fly low and slow if need be, which would be used for take off and landings on a carrier, very cool plane, I am happy its on our side!

God Bless the USA!

i thought we'd agreed it was from tv/film

I don't think SIRR1 read the other posts. Everybody agrees but him.

Yes, this movie plane information has already been posted on ATS and BTS:
