Subject: Speaking of F-117's

A recent article in JANES DEFENSE WEEKLY stated that the Air Force and
Lockheed have begun enhancements on the F-117A.  Lockheed has come up with 18
technology improvements to make the F-117A even harder to detect by hostiles.
 This includes a new bubble-shaped canopy; and new or improved weapons.  The
cost of the program is interesting, in that currently the Air Force is
spending $11 million annually on modifications of the F-117A, but the new
program is budgeted at $48 million for FY96 and $40 million for FY97.
It will be real interesting to see what the total 18 improvements are?
