Active Stealth (1999)
I only caught part of this..
I only caught part of this movie as it was playing on HBO... One thing that caught me, aside from the hat the carrier commander was wearing said SSN, instead of CVN, was that when the pilot of the stealth went to hit his countermeasures, two of the buttons he hit were marked "FLIR" and "DLIR". For anyone who knows even a little about military aircraft, FLIR and DLIR are radars, NOT flares or other countermeasures. This was just a bad movie, even from the few parts I saw. It's an insult to every military pilot out there and to anyone who even knows a little bit about the planes featured. The fact that the F-117 is NOT a 2-seater, let alone has no room for passengers in the back. I can't believe that the producers and others involved would pay no attention whatsoever to detail.
