The plane in these pictures is still officially the 'Air
Vehicle Number 1', a prototype, on board the
USS George Washington
CVN-73 for catapult fit checks. Not exactly still
Top Secret but certainly not yet made public.
It will be known as the F/A-37. Although specs are
classified, it is believed to be Mach 3.5 (top speed in
the Mach 4 range) super-cruise stealth
fighter/bomber/interceptor with approximately a
4,000nm range. Awesome!

Check out the Navy test pilot in
the cockpit of the F/A-37...
LT Kara Wade.

The fictional F/A-37 Talon (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fictional_military_aircraft#F.2FA-37_Talon). The aircraft mock ups for the Talon were so realistic that photos of them on the deck of an aircraft carrier were circulated online, claiming they displayed an actual experimental aircraft.
Yep, movie prop and that's Jessica Biel in the cockpit. Why have you reposted this? Your original post is only on page 2.

I didn't think that the PDF would be readable so I took selected pics and
posted them. Sorry about that. I was unaware of the movie. I received
a PDF with that plane in it from my Dad last weekend and I was thinking the plane
was real and didn't see the movie.

Don't worry. You are not alone. The same pictures have been posted here at least one other time and I get them anually from friends and family via e-mail.

It's actually a pretty good movie. Really nice, realistic looking and integrated CGI.

If you base your movie preference on special effects over a decent plot then yes that movie was great! :icon_lol:
