My, what a thoughtful response.

Remember me when the Crotale french SAM and Shahine saudi SAM detected
the F117 during the 1st gulf war ...

What are you smoking? The F-117 was not detected, and there is no
evidence that it ever has been. If Saddam's french SAMs had
"detected" the F-117 they would have fired unless you mean french
manned Crotales, in which case they never detected the F-117
either.

I think he's aiming at the fact that the F-117 is detectable on survailance
radar, but not trackable for missile guidence ... apart from the brief
period where it's belly doors are open, when it has the radar signiture of a
greyhound bus.
