The Plane That Was Meant To Be Invisible The USAF F117-A Stealth Fighter was shot down over the town of Budjanovcima, Serbia. It crashed in a farmer's field. The media told people that USAF Search & Rescue successfully rescued the pilot, however the contrast between the truth and what the media says is ever present. As you can see below, the ejection seat of the F117-A is still with the plane. This means the pilot didn't eject and he was killed, or he didn't eject far and was captured by the Yugoslav Army.
