Hi,

I just came across this article regarding the "swimming spy plane" from the Skunkworks and thought I'd share. Enjoy.

What will they think of next??

I just wonder if this is a real project or another 'Wouldn't it be nice if...', but then again the F117 was a weird dream once so why not?

And I thought the F117 was "not exactly the most aerodynamic design"!!

Wonder how many computers this one will need to fly.
