It’s not so much that they shot 1 out of 200 , it’s more that the F117A were supposed to be un-shootdown able. Kind of like the U-2 . It’s not the number of planes they shot down that counts , it’s the fact that they shot down any itself .

The US really can’t afford to look so smug in the meme, the shooting was an embarassment and led to the dissemination of stealth tech through Russia and China.

They’re still celebrating shooting it down it’s best to just let them have that one

But it also only got shot down because they had intel of its direct path and when it took off and everything so they were able to flip on their radars along the route and track it. Also the guy (general?) who shot it down didnt care about the war at all, his only goal was to shoot down an f-117

Only the F117 is kind of old hat.
