The way Zoltán Dani shot down that F-117 was pretty impressive and as hackbunny mentioned, HUMINT played a role in this along with the US getting complacent: the air corridor above which the F-117 was shot down had been used in the previous sorties and since they went pretty smoothly the flight did not have a SEAD escort; spies in Italy let them know when the aircrafts took off and observers on the ground below the strike route were put in place to give early warning. Knowing when and where the aircrafts would pass through allowed him to position the battery in the right place to illuminate the area where they would be, and while the older radars were less accurate, they were also less affected by the radar-absorbing coating of the F-117. All these factors lead to the first combat loss of an F-117A. radintorov fucked around with this message at 01:45 on May 30, 2016 |

I was expecting some bigger explosions than what we've got in the bad ending. Also
