Don’t you mean the SR-71?

F-117 is still doing its thing.

Is it? I'd heard they retired them.

They're mostly* retired, replaced (49th Wing, Holloman AFB) by the F-22A. Took them out to their former 37TFW hangars at Tonopah, removed their wings and put them into deep storage.

(*except for this very unlucky fellow that was cut up to test disposal techniques):
