“Still, all the cockpit interfaces and diverse stores management capabilities were baked into the design—including the provision to carry and employ nuclear gravity bombs—namely the B57 and B61”
Based on this article, the F-117 is still used by US Air Force 16 years after being decommissioned:
“The Air Force has confirmed its intention to extend the operations of the F-117 until 2034, meaning the aircraft will be in service for 26 years after its official retirement. Obviously, such an extension would be unorthodox, but it is not without good reasons.”
so why not gives 1 or 2 F-117 to Ukraine for “research” (with big payload which do beautiful mushroom of course, you don’t want to mess with the research result after all 😏 )

Given that Serbia is allied with Russia, that might not be the best choice.
Best part is the stealth technology was learned from Russian academic research
didn’t knew that, I just knew that SR-71 was built with soviet titanium imported from russia by the CIA 🤣
Skunkworks is a great book that talks about development of both planes! Loved it
