QuoteThis projects rocks! I just couldn't imagine that the Germans were so advanced in Stealth research in the 80's.
Now, something have to be done
Why not an "early stealth" group build including
- Hopeless Diamond
- Have Blue
- F-117
- Lampyridae
BAE Replica Perhaps? I love that plane... :D

I'm thinking... could an operational Lampyridae been powered by one or two
RB-199? (maybe without reheat, just like the F-117)
King Arthur: Can we come up and have a look?
French Soldier: Of course not. You're English types.
King Arthur: What are you then?
French Soldier: I'm French. Why do you think I have this outrageous accent, you silly king?

Well regardless I would rather take my chance out there on the ocean, that to stay here and die on this poo-hole island spending the rest of my life talking to a gosh darn VOLLEYBALL.

The Lampyridae was purely a research airplane. I suspect there's no room for a weapons bay, for instance.
Its shape suggests a single engine.

Ok, so aparently they produced only one 3/4 mockup and a non-powered full scale glider?
Now, it's time for whatiffing...I wrote and modelled what this program could have become. Yesterday I had a productive afternoon :) !
