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 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:

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