摘要

DURING A SUNNY AFTERNOON bike ride atop the hills overlooking San Diego in December 1990, Navy test pilot Rob Niewoehner and a fellow Naval aviator paused to practice one of the privileges afforded members of the fighter pilot community-complaining. "We were both junior officers at the time," Niewoehner recalls, "and the Navy had just canceled the F-23 fighter program, just weeks before I was scheduled to fly the prototype. I was not happy." Northrop's experimental YF-23 and the McDonnell Douglas A-12 attack airplane project (canceled just weeks later) were advanced-technology stealth programs, so-called fifth-generation jets. The two were among the leading candidates to replace fourth-generation combat aircraft on the decks of Navy aircraft carriers. To Niewoehner, abandoning both programs meant the Navy was pulling the plug on the newest technology.
