Technology and Performance
Faceted Stealth Geometry
Every angled panel is intentional — a brick-built homage to the radar-deflecting facets that defined first-generation stealth. The angular plates fit with mathematical precision around the small two-window cockpit.
First-Generation Stealth Attack
The flying-wedge silhouette that opened Desert Storm. Twin canted V-tails, sharp angular intakes, sawtooth leading edges. Every detail of Lockheed's pioneering stealth attack platform, in 42 cm of precise brick engineering.
Black Project Hangar
Stage the Nighthawk as it deserves: matte black faceted geometry under a single warm spotlight, deep shadows pooling beneath canted V-tails. Aviation history in display form.
From The NexusBrick Community
The faceted geometry build is unique — nothing else like it on my shelf.
Compact but striking. The angular silhouette dominates display lighting.
Honored my late father, who flew 117s out of Tonopah. Thank you NexusBrick.
