Stealth does NOT confer invisibility. Even if it did, it would not confer invisibility to optical or infra red trackers.

Stealth never was intended to confer the sort of capability to ignore enemy radar in any mission profile.

Thanks for the reminder. I am a fan of the F117 and remember reading it is not immune or perfect.
