I actually saw that prop on the Lincoln when I was out in San Diego a couple months ago. They took it out on a CQ cruise when the Prowler RAG and Super RAGs were qual’ing so they could get some ‘in action shots.’ We saw it sitting on the deck before they unloaded it so we could get on. It was big.
unfortunately, Jessica Biel was long gone before we got on the boat
Yeah, for her own safety. [;)]
I knew it couldn’t have been real when I really started to look at it. No way could it fly, let alone be stealthy. Then with the close up of Lt. Kara Wade, I knew something was wrong. I’ve never seen a flight helmet, flight suit, or ejection seat like that one. Plus no visiblity to the rear… oh the list goes on and on. Still didn’t think it was for a movie until I read the fine print. [:I]
Hmm if thats going to be a movie about stealth aircraft I wonder if the Aircraft Carrier will have stealth capability also? Like the ships from the Hulk Hogan tv series or Tomorrow Never Dies?
OK guys, it ain’t a declassified stealth figther for aircraft carriers.
It’s the 1/1 scale model from an airplane for the movie : Stealth.
You’ll find some info when you take a look on theinternet movie database ( www.imdb.com ). So sorry, no new real airplane Nevertheless it looks pretty great.
PS : no the plane CAN’T fly !!! Its just a static model. So the take off with the catapults on the carrier is computer animated and special effect, not a 10 billion $ engine in the plane They could launch the plane if they want to, buth ghuess it wasn’t meant to be a submarine
