An F-117 Nighthawk engages it's target and drops a GBU-28 guided bomb unit during the 'live-fire' weapons testing mission COMBAT HAMMER, at Hill Air Force Base, Utah.
The F-1117 was involved in the civil war in Yugoslavia in 1999, and one plane was shot down and became famous for being the only one lost in action. In 2008, the service of this plane was finally closed by the US Air Force.
