Boeing Bird of Prey.

Development of the Bird of Prey began in 1992 by McDonnell Douglas's Phantom Works division for special projects, at Area 51. The aircraft's name is a reference to the Klingon Bird of Prey warship from the Star Trek television series.
Because it was a demonstration aircraft, the Bird of Prey used a commercial off-the-shelf turbofan engine and manual hydraulic controls rather than fly-by-wire

Original model by Oleg Pomoshnikov by kind permission.
Conversion and tweaks myself.
Also special thanks to Gattispilot for the animation tips.

UPDATE:-
Special thanks to Liber for the Canopy, Air-brake anim and a VC

Now includes a VC

G - landing gear
K - canopy
LShift+4 - air brake

OVERWRITE ALL.

Enjoy.

NICE

Just took it on a quick test flight today and it works pretty well, looks great to. If I'm not mistaken, there were rumors that this aircraft was a test platform for active camouflage (visual stealth) I bet its safe to assume if its true that the device used for visual stealth was removed and transferred to a different more classified aircraft before the bird of prey was publicized & put on display.

This is very good, Ken, but I would really like to know what happened to all your previous add-ons.
