@Seastar144 This is one of the few pictures showing the wipers in action.

[Dima Maximov ok @tebeinteresno]

@Seastar144 Btw, it also has a small hole on the side for flushing water from a chamber *as far as I understand)

[Dima Maximov ok @tebeinteresno]

@UnwantedBlog For me it’s hard to tell because faceted stealthy housing might be useful if you also test RCS of the plane during bombing test operations and regular rounds shape housing could just spoof all of RCS data.

[Dima Maximov ok @tebeinteresno]

@UnwantedBlog Here is another picture

[Dima Maximov ok @tebeinteresno]

@UnwantedBlog These pods were used to carry the camera modules during bomb bay testing. You can find these orange pieces under the wing.

@Why485 Why does your F-117 need a side stick?

[Dima Maximov ok @tebeinteresno]

@ThrustWR Pfft. This already happened with the F-117, when after climate testing it suffered damage to the exhaust and engine, after which the entire exhaust section was replaced.

[Dima Maximov ok @tebeinteresno]

@plkv Rather to say what you love and what you like more often and there will be no room for grumpiness.

[Dima Maximov ok @tebeinteresno]

@Why485 @kichiguy14 Btw if you need some details about f-117 so I’ve made subreddit about it here r/f117a

@Nick_Stevens_Gr Sometimes I use this https://t.co/ekQNTrsrhW to get something like this. Still arty but sometimes the result is much clearer and good enough for me

[Dima Maximov ok @tebeinteresno]

@NelC @Nick_Stevens_Gr I would say yes but there is others letters such as G and V what in cyrillic have other characters : Г and В.

[Dima Maximov ok @tebeinteresno]

@Nick_Stevens_Gr Cool! If you need something technical to translate , I could help.
Anyway, cool rare stuff!

[Dima Maximov ok @tebeinteresno]

@Nick_Stevens_Gr You forgot «вес при посадке на Луну -21 т» The weight at landing on the moon -21 t.
But numbers and our assumptions are correct!

[Dima Maximov ok @tebeinteresno]

@Nick_Stevens_Gr But why those Po have two numbers? Mass of fuel and mass of oxidiser? Or mass of oxidiser on landing stage and upper stage?

[Dima Maximov ok @tebeinteresno]

@Nick_Stevens_Gr Perhaps. Looks logical and also it could be checked with LEM real numbers but also we should keep in mind that when that picture has been made, soviets probably didn’t knew exact numbers and could had only estimations and open source data at the time

[Dima Maximov ok @tebeinteresno]

@Nick_Stevens_Gr Seems so. I guess in orbital mechanic it makes more immersive.

[Dima Maximov ok @tebeinteresno]

@Nick_Stevens_Gr G взлетный — G on takeoff
G конечный — G final
V полезный — V useful

[Dima Maximov ok @tebeinteresno]

@Nick_Stevens_Gr I can recognise the last three G взлетный, G конечный, V полезный

[Dima Maximov ok @tebeinteresno]

@Nick_Stevens_Gr Maybe Gп means «посадочная» or «посадки» ?
