Was it allowed into the ADIZ. Did they evacuate the Capitol? If it did bust the ADIZ, how would they know since its stealthy? Maybe they will ban military aircraft in the ADIZ as someone could hijack one and use their missile systems on innocent civilians.

The second and eighth pictures shows Fort Monroe. Located there is a lighthouse known as Old Point Comfort (Virginia). The Fort is still an active military base and the light is now fully automated. Fort Monroe is loaded with early American history including being the largest stone fort built in the United States (started in 1819 and completed in 1839) and it served as a prison for Jefferson Davis.
