I think the F-117 is should still get a gold star for only one getting shot down. I mean, in Red Storm Rising, written back in the 80s, Clancy gave the stealth fighters (he had a fighter/bomber imagined rather than just a bomber) a 2% chance of being shot down. Therefore, after like 50 mission they were losing guys every couple missions.
I think though, with hundreds of sorties flown, and only 1 shot down, the actual odds of killing a stealth fighter/bomber is like next to nil. Granted it wasn't the soviet we were fighting but it was their technology.
