Hey, Germany Invented It... Face It

All the
Germans did was use radar absorbing paint. This does not qualify as
inventing "stealth", yet no German seems to understand this.

This was true of both sides, actually. The first stealthy warplane is
considered to be the Horten/Gotha nurflugel fighter-bomber, the second
the Northrop YB-49. Neither one was meant to be stealthy; the builders
were simply trying to build an all-wing aircraft. Only after it was
flying did the builders discover they couldn't be seen on the radar of
the time (in the case of the Horten, airborne radar).

all the best -- Dan Ford
