T Cut ok on stealth coatings?

Probably more chance than with that one of ours that ditched in the Med!
So long as the airframe is mostly sound, damage can be repaired, the specialist coatings are regularly stripped off and replaced - there are still F-117’s flying, being used in aggressor rôles for training pilots for combat against stealthy aircraft, and I have seen photos of one with a bare metal airframe. Not as costly as redoing a B-2 Spirit!
