Plane part

**Victrix** · 10-14-2014 06:27 PM

My Dad gave me this piece which he claims is from a Lockheed F-117 Nighthawk. Is there any way I can find out for sure or get it authenticated?
Also does it have some value?

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

I was expecting serious answer...

Friend, I am being serious!!
Keep it as a family heirloom, If it is a piece of the only F117 shot down. The technology was compromised and spread to the four winds. At onetime that little piece would have made you father a rich man but then again you guys had the whole plane, minus the pilot of course.

In that case sorry I misinterpreted your first comment

Yes its a piece of one (and only xD) shot down (99')...
I'm not so much into "modern warfare" artifacts, thats why I wanted to find a collector who is going to appreciate this piece as it should be...
And thats how I ended up here wanting to see possible range of prices...

How are we supposed to be serious when you give us a dark little picture of some un-identifiable something? The best you can hope for is no answer at all. Then you chastise? Good luck identifying it.

**Victrix** · 10-15-2014 01:18 PM

Well I came here with information I have...
What are you expecting...
I can have it authenticated at our Airforce Museum but I'm not sure how much is that valid internationally...so I was seeking advice...
But thank you nonetheless...

**Victrix** · 10-15-2014 02:25 PM

also regarding better pictures (the best my cam can make)

**browningautorifle** · 10-15-2014 05:08 PM

Have you contacted Lockheed?

**Victrix** · 10-15-2014 05:29 PM

As I understand some parts of that aircraft are still under classified information so I dont expect to get that kind from them directly...
