I believe that's the Northrop Tacit Blue technology demonstrator. First flight 1982. It was (at the time) demonstrating low observability for surveillance missions.

Here's another angle of the same aircraft:

Ok...let's go back to biplanes. Can be interesting, and sometimes a little more difficult too. What is this?

Nationality. Manufacturer. Date introduced. Designation and function.

Nothing too terribly difficult...I am saving those. Hehehe.

I've actually seen this plane in person at Wright Pat Musuem.
