Description

The YF-23, with its thrust vectoring engines and Fly-by-Wire control scheme, proved itself a sound aircraft. It showcased the then-popular "supercruise" function which was a new concept of achieving sustained supersonic flight without the use of fuel-thirsty afterburner or any other form of specialized engine augmentation. This allowed the YF-23 to achieve impressive straight-line speeds while still retaining a stealth-like capability. Stealth was further enhanced by the YF-23's low profile as well as a classified make-up of the airframe concerning its skin material. It is said that this next-generation aircraft could avoid nearly 100% detection from most any radar system of the period.
