I recently removed theF-117 from this list for two reasons, first and most obvious-it came well after this series ended and as such was part of a different series. Indeed the USAF used a series of triple digit designations for covertly acquired foreign aircraft,such as YF-113 for a Mig-23, but this has nothing to do with the pre 1962 series. At the end of that series, theF-110 became theF-4. Starting the new triple digit series was theYF-110 which was actually a Chinese J-7. The pre 62 series was not continued, it ended with the F-111 and any triple digit designation afterward was meant to designate covertly acquired aircraft. The F-117 was supposed to look like one of them on paper, probably to throw off the Soviets and aviation community. (The last sentence was OR on my part, so I won't be posting it in an article.)Anynobody22:56, 12 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I'm actually thinking a complete revamp is necessary. I was going to say, "wherever theF-16,F-15 andF-22 are listed", and then it dawned on me... USAF Fighters, that should be here.Anynobody07:50, 21 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
