Plot summary
The U.S. Navy develops a stealth fighter, the F/A-37 Talon, that carries one pilot and is built for speed, range and payload. Four hundred applicants are screened and three lieutenants are chosen: Ben Gannon, Kara Wade and Henry Purcell. Captain George Cummings runs the program. To advance it, Cummings has an artificial intelligence called the Extreme Deep Invader, or EDI, installed in an aircraft that flies without a crew. EDI joins the three pilots in the Philippine Sea so that it can learn combat maneuvers by watching them. The arrangement stirs argument over whether a machine can make moral decisions, set against the pilots' own struggle with ego. Dr. Keith Orbit created EDI.

Did you know?!Facts and trivia about Stealth (2005)
Can contain spoilers, watch the movie first.
- Stealth cost $135 million to make but grossed only $79.3 million worldwide, a shortfall the article calls one of the worst financial losses in cinematic history.
- A man named Leo Stoller, claiming he owned trademark rights to the word "stealth", threatened Columbia Pictures with a lawsuit over the film's title; Columbia sued him first, and a court issued a permanent injunction against Stoller in November 2005.
- The Blue Mountains Conservation Society successfully sued to stop Stealth from filming in the Grose Valley wilderness area of Australia's Blue Mountains National Park, with a New South Wales judge ruling in May 2004 that commercial filming there was unlawful.
- The Stealth soundtrack included "Over My Head (Cable Car)" by the then-unknown Colorado band The Fray, which went on to reach number 8 on the Billboard Hot 100, become the fifth most-downloaded single of 2006, earn a Grammy nomination, and launch the band to stardom, far outgrowing the film it came from.
- Rock band Incubus wrote original music for a film for the first time on Stealth, with singer Brandon Boyd citing Queen's "Princes of the Universe" as inspiration, and the resulting song "Neither of Us Can See" became the band's first-ever duet, featuring vocals from Chrissie Hynde.
