We had a F-117 bomb West Texas last year. He bombed a interstate dumpster &
somebody's bathroom before he found out he was dropping practice bombs. He claimed he didn't know the jet was loaded with them, which may be true. The investigation revealed he was running late, missed most of his pre-flight briefing, his jet crapped out & switched planes at the last minute and didn't pre-flight it.
