Actually, it was the B-2 stealth bomber that Carter spilled the beans on. It was a rationalization on why he canceled the B-1, since the B-2 was in the pipeline.

Carter brought the Stealth program up during the 1980 campaign. The B-2 didn't start development until 1981. The F-117 was well underway during his Presidency and was first classified as a bomber.
